assume the looks are the same but the ride quality/safety is questionable?

Hi Zippy,

Exactly right. Also, that bike doesn't work. The rear brake is nearly impossible to install and the shift guide tubes flex excessively. Among other worries, as you noted.

I had the unfortunate "pleasure" of informing a poor guy of that when he brought his fake to Eurobike last year. He had a bike that wasn't rideable, and no recourse.

Cheers,

I was thinking about picking up one of these as I have seen a few people set them up with full aerobars. As long as you can get the front end low enough that is. There are a few posts on this frame in another post on ST. Check out page 4 half way down.
