They are fairly expensive but after a year or two of having them over here and after they have had some good reviews, I think the business would start to really take off.

They look as if they can do 100 foot to flat hucks quite easily.:p

How much do they weigh?

Expensive?

Hardly...

The Zed8 is about $2350 AUD

The Elite9 comes in at about $3080 AUD

WITH a rear hub, chain guide, seat post & clamp

Id say thats pretty damn competitive;)

Their team bikes (elite9) complete came in at 45lbs with a pretty standard build. The Zed8's look a fair wack lighter too.

Not bad at all. Around 19kg is good.

Now that you mention the extra stuff that comes with it, it will proabably be a pretty popular bike.

Sounds like a great idea but they are already available straight from teh manufacturer. I cant see too many people paying extra to go through an importer, it mite be hard to make a profit!
