    never heard of them.
    look cheap and nothing special.

    Interesting is they are meant to be Swiss but show a UK number.

    I would be buying for somewhere local.

    Looking at the equipment spec, they look like hobby bikes.

    The domain owner and nameservers are swiss....


    Either way, I'd wait until they have some more obvious presence in the UK before considering them - so many brands pop up with a UK distributor for a year or so then dissapear.

    Avi looked at the Logo and read the text?

    Our European head-office is located in the beautiful area near Lake Geneva. Our central warehouse which is situated just outside Munich (Germany) provides optimal and efficient logistics throughout the EU market.

    but they give a UK tel number? with the swiss addy!

    just seems a bit different.

    Yeah, I got carried away and forgot the odd bit was the UK number...

    Just seen one in the flesh and top end prices are $460 so about 280 pounds

    There is no one selling these apart from that web site
