Seem to be nicely finished, far-eastern made.

The bike company is really a hobby on the side for the chief designer who runs Aberlink and has earned doubtless all the cash he'll ever want in his principal role

Pronounced 'chorus'

Ooo, deffo Taiwan? I'd have wagered they were made by XACD in China (from the look of the construction and finish) but I've not read otherwise.

Seem on the expensive side compared to the Lynskey etc. frames and you could always go direct to XACD for quite a saving - have a peek at [url= http://www.spanner.org.uk ]Spanner Bikes[/url]

Well for a start, custom geometry is an option.

Designed here, made in the Far East (I forget exactly where)

I've tested the mtb and it was very nicely put together and without going into a full review, I have to say that I thought it was really good fun but quick with it.

Just to be clear, I know the guy behind it.

Oh and it's pronounced Core-oz

Cheers for the replies.

I couldn't find anything about warranty on the site.

They have always looked over priced to me for single gauge Ti made in the far east. I would be more inclined to look at Enigma and their top 3 or 4 Ti frames are made in the UK.

Saw one in Noahs ark and the bb was gouged into by something that looked like a chainring, not good for a bike they were selling and getting interest in as a new brand.

Was uber nice as the branding was not qoros, it was ''legaro'' meaning lightweight so I was told. Welds look clean and was in satin finish and looks the nuts.

Plus their Ti stems are a work of art and are trail worthy iirc.

Would of bought one if I hadn't had a Merlin already. ๐Ÿ˜›

Good stuff I'd say, not sure on pricing now though.
