I saw those on Ebay the other week. They seem pretty good value for a full Alfine kit. My brother emailed the guy to check on the rack/mudguard mounts as in the advert it says it has them but actually it doesn't.

Ive seen one of these down at the eBay warehouse (we don't do them in store). Frame isnt amazing and the brace for the rear disc brake and dropouts look like they've been designed/built by a monkey but for £300 with a full alfine and hydro discs its certainly great value as a commuter bike.

Id love to tell you the orange looks better in the flesh, but id be lying 😀
