No, never heard of.

Pretty sure the similar will not apply to the MXZ, but some time ago I saw a frame of the brand shun fung lee or whatever somewere on the web. It was offered business to business, so someone with the right idea could swing his decal on. What was striking was that the frame was not available to the US market. In fact it was a Kestrel Talon.

I guess thats what has gone on with this frame,

subtle differences to keep kestrels lawyers of thier backs

:roll:
 
I meant to say, Kestrel sourced their Thalon with the shung lu fi (or whatever) company.

I am sure that will not be the case with the MZX.

(nice bike ;) )

I doubt whether one can say it is a rip off. They are about as alike as 2 ad random traditional diamond shape frames are.

I think that if you want to design a e-stay frame you end up with such. It could be fiocco got the idea of offering one when they saw the mighty, awesome Kestrel :idea:

Dear God! Melvin that bike is nasty, I know they say that we europeans are one big happy family but that proves that the germans are a breed apart!

I need that bike - are you able to translate - am I buying a complete bike or just parts of one? And will it snap the first time I try to ride it?[/i]
