They're absolutely 'stunting'!

they are ridiculously cheap, which is worrying. even more worrying is that they look ok!

oh dear...

they look "ok" because they're copying a existing aesthetic...
its quite possible they're shit.

They are cheap. The components I am sure are cheap but then again a cheap conversion has cheap bits on it. Wheel look the worst bit on them due to the low spoke count

Apart from the annoying marketing what is wrong with them. They very well may be a good cheap first bike. AS long as not too much is expected from them.

Can I get a "hell yeah!" for the slack chain.

I know a thing or two about these so called 'ravers bikes' and these ones are very trendy.

I would buy one if I was unsure about cycling and fixed gear in general asnd wanted to give it a go and couldn't be arsed with a conversion..
They aren't THAT bad, (except the lack of spokes as Tommy said.)
But only one size?! thats not fair..

brake cables are not attached in that photo.

they are just a rebadged RaverSlave™

marketed as 'SlaveRaver' in north america due to copyright issues.

So, I'm thinking of getting one just for the wheels and seatpost, then giving the missus the freame, forks etc with some other components. Do you folks think it's a bad idea? They look like nice rims, although alloy aero rims is a bit general.. Anybody know anything more about them?

Frames are Ok but heavy.
they have a short top tube, but a very high stand over height.
Wheels - Rims are ok , Hubs are SHIT

OK, thanks for the info. Like pretty much everyone here, I'm ater a decent wheelset but without paying top dollar. The dream being deepvs + phil woods, it's just i'm short a by a few hundred quid. So, these looked like a nice stop gap. But, if they are shit hubs it's not going to be worth it.

I too will lay await tonight and worry about those loose cables Scrapper.

1+ get a Fuji and resist the magnet 'Add to Basket' button!

how long will non machined rims with brakes last?? and also where do you get the £199 from?? cant find a price on the website. I would buy it just for the frame forks and wheels its a good price to be honest.

or you can get it through here...
