is it just me who thinks this seems a little overpriced? i mean you can get a custom build from mercian for these than that. or is it paying for r+d.

Tend to agree, it does seem expensive. But paying for the low volume nature I guess. If it was a mass produced frame using exact same materials it would be nothing like that price.
So the choice would be go for Taiwanese and get better value, or get something a bit rarer?
Personally, for that around that price I would buy a Brooklyn, but they are no better value but different reasons I suppose (import, exchange rate etc,.)

I don't know how strong the charge dish wheelset is, but from experience (small amount) a strong wheelset is just as important as a strong frame. I'm running dp18's 32hole on cheapy hubs and they are slightly out already just from barspinning and the odd hop 180. Just something to bare in mind. Good luck, and have fun!

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

> Quote text by starting lines with >

Mention another user by @username

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```
Your code goes here
```
Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.

If you upload more than 5 files we will display all attachments as thumbnails.
