...."click to lunch".....nice.... plus, most of the parts look like copies of other manufacturers equips... the DH Hussar Stem looks exactly like Truvativ's stems... if only Amoeba didn't have a bad rep. for their Borla stem/handlebar sets....

for DH use, some borla sets have broken, some at the stem, some at the handlebars...
though those on the website are different from those that are sold here...

yup, i used to use borla on my beginner days, the stem cracked after a few very low jumps. very fragile. so, nobody uses this chainguide yet?

for me, I'd use these parts from them on low stress parts, like saddles and seatpost (I use an Amoeba seatpost).
personally I haven't seen the amoeba chainguide, but this is also a low stress part, so maybe they're good enough....there just there to guide the chain, anyways....
If they cost less that 1k, why not?
x's... oh, and I didn't see them on the Amoeba website, are they there?

so far haven't heard much problems from the XC set...for XC/trail riding maybe they're tough enough....see many of these around.
it's mostly the DH borla sets that seems to have the cracking issue....doesn't stand up to their purposed use..

found this picture while browsing, seems good enough, if this would come around or lower than 1K, I'd buy one.
