Giant atx frames on ebay

[Gronk]

Has anyone seen these on ebay? They are always sold in Hong Kong or Japan etc... they look good, and are priced nicely too. My concern is the fact that they still call them atx frames, I thought Giant stopped using that name years ago when they switched to the xtc. So are these just very old stock they had lying around in a warehouse somewhere, or do they use a different model naming system over there? Or worse, are they cheap knock-offs?

I think there was a shorter travel frame, and a hardtail named ATX.

The seat and chainstay tubing is sqaure. :confused: Interesting... Minus that crappy green and blue accents, I like the white one.

EDIT: Some extra gussets too.

One might immagine this to be an XTC like frame with the advantage of being stronger?

[Gronk]

I agree, they do look good... and they are priced nicely too! I had an atx 890 back in the day and it wass an awesome bike... if these are the same I'm tempted to get me one.

if you want to be really careful you can always ask giant australia or something along those lines

[Gronk]

Would Gianbt have any issues with us trying to bring in 'Foreign" models or anything? I know they can have weird rules about some of their stuff.

I emailed goboseller and the frames only come in 17" too, that sucks.

Its probably like probikekit or chain reaction cycles and POLAR. Polar wont let either sell into Australia, i would imagine at threat of not lsuppling to them. POLAR wants to sell through stores in Australia so they can royaly screw us on price. However there isnt anything legally stopping someone selling POLAR gear in Australia, its jsut that POLAR probably wont supply to them.

There is unlikely anything Giant could do. I may be wrong but im pretty sure ATX is what giant call the hardtails sold in China, i dont think they sell a XTC model there.

going by hthe pics of it and others he sells,reign and anthem, they look genuine and are not knock offs. i read all his feedback which was excellent , not 1 dud comment, beware- postage is a killer, he also sells some xtr stuff as well-pedals.derailleurs etc. most people say one thing about him, he's quick to post stuff.
good luck

[spyder6052]

he's a good seller so i say they are legit

[Chamelion]

Hopefully he's as good as they say.. I've got some Wellgo MG-1's on the way from him. :cool:
