Some users here bought them a while back. Search the message board and you'll find some comments.
I've never seen a magazine or website review though.0 -
My concern right from the start has always been is it too good to be true?
A few people on here have them and love them but I personally reserve judgment until either a mag gets hold of one or someone on here I know has ridden one...
The owners could be right and they could be brilliant but as someone who considered one, I had the following concerns:
- It takes a brave man to drop £1000 and then admit it's pretty average afterall.
- Does the bargain of it cloud your vision once you start riding it
- I don't know the owner's bike history, experience or level of knowledge and therefore can't trust their judgment.
No offence to the guys who have bought them - like I said I don't know you and I'm prepared to admit I'm wrong...0 -
