I know a guy who got one its really dope except he just broke the swing arm while just riding a dh course. Hes a big guy like 6'3" and 220 but still. I duno if it was just a misproduction thing or what iorn horse is warrentying it though. HE rode a stinkey deeleux with no problems with it.

Even if I swapped the frame, that is a BEAST of a deal.

It is. 5th Element and Dorados. Whole bike for about $4,000 CDN.

For $3,000 CDN, you can get a similar setup, but with a Boxxer Race instead of the Dorados.

just a few things to watch out for if your going through with this there smithy

i brought in a bike last summer , it cost 500 cdn$ for shipping that was with the shop ( sadly deceassed ''bike celler'') paying some of the cost.

it also cost me a further 500 euro in custom (80 i think) and v.a.t.( like 420)

just to factor these kind of costs into your killer deal , i dont know what vat and custom rates in scotland are like but i am guessing there something similar.

Yea, I got ass-raped by the damn government on my Le Toy Frame, but supposedly if you get 'gift' written on the side it's tax free or something?

^Ahh. The urban legend lives on. Tried doing the "gift" thing while importing a fork from the states. Now I got UPS sending me monthly financial statements. ;)

If the frame is half decent, it's an awesome deal. It's pretty hard to be Norco on a parts spec to price ration, and the SGS does it easily.

The black Peeler is my new FS bike. I've hardly ridden it because of so many things happening. :( But so far I really like it.
