Sponge Posted July 20, 2006 Report Share Posted July 20, 2006 Biff, and Joe, To get everything clear, these are the prices:Echo Lite frame £50, Echo forged cranks £10, 4 pack of zoo pads £6. All the other higher end Ultra 6 frames are around £100. Headsets and BBs £15-£20...Plus a shit load of Aorta and Zhi stuff here too... I can get pics of the Zhi Riser bar tomorrow if you like. And the Zhi ZM1 frame , Zhi cranks, and a FULL new Echo Pure 2004/2005 with mini seat! Shame there's no room in my luggage for big stuff...I've got a family friend coming over to England and China alot every year, so he can bring stuff back with him, if absolutely necessary. Some lucky lucky people (especially Mr.Igotalimeydealoffebay) have already got stuff coming to them for cheap However, in China, I can't find the new Adamant, GU, and Czar cranks, boosters, bars, or hubs. They arent in stock yet in the shops I visit. Meh, Zhi rims ***. Pictures up tomorrow if anyone likes... Time for bed. It's late here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted July 20, 2006 Report Share Posted July 20, 2006 I do so enjoy finding out how much I'm being reamed. Buy me a present. Team stem will suffice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark W Posted July 20, 2006 Report Share Posted July 20, 2006 The price of this stem makes me laugh. I'll sort out postage with you when you're back I guess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joe b Posted July 20, 2006 Report Share Posted July 20, 2006 I hope, very much, that Deng has done his homework this time. Or else he will have quite a few unhappy customers! They look OK, from what i can see; really pants picture on the Tartybikes website (which very unlike Adam/Dave). Still... After what happened with the other batch of hubs, i can't see many people buying one. And, definately not me!!!Cheers,Joe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That picture was basically just a mock-up, so it was that or nothing, basically. At least you get an idea of it.Anyways, in that I value my face, I'll let the early buyers rinse through the stereotypical Deng "bad first batch", then see if the decent batches hold up before I'd even think of parting with any cash...

What in dear gods name has the quality of f**king food got to do with my post? simply because i made a comment on the price? Lets try this for an equally strange tangent.
