have read that seansurfy.was a good break down .interesting to see him rate it over the tiagras and penn inters.i think there about $100 cheaper than the penns and $150 less than the tiagras. it would be good to see them put pressure on these big brands and maybee thier price might drop a bit

Yep the price point will be around $100-150 cheaper than the Tiagra's and from what ive seen definately work it.

 

Seen one cut in half and all the working components in play. The materials there made out of and seeing how robust they are it looks like they'll be a good seller
