I noticed on another thread that a couple of people have them.

So what are these frames like? I see that there are sellers in Hong Kong or China. Did you pay import tax ? If so what did it cost all in?

I have had 3 in the past...
2 mountain bikes and a road bike, which have all been great. I also got the handlebars, stem, seatpost and seatclamp with them all, and they work well as well.
I personally think there great for the money, and worth a try any day.

As for the income tax, i contacted the sales person directly instead of going though Ebay, that way i got them to put the parcels as gift, and lower the retail price of them down, so i didn't pay any import Duty/Tax.

Total cost for me including all the other bits was -
Mountain Bike - £270
Road Bike - £350 (That had a Road Fork with it as well)

Definitely worth a go...
Email me if you want any more info
Cheers
Josh

Whats the liability aspect if they fail and you fall? Sorry- thats an open-question. A fear, I guess- but thought I'd throw the question to the forum.
