eehnafoddisolreddi!!! if you like the frame, go buy. if u later realize you've been duped, hopefully not injured, thank the man upstairs for your luck, then lets workup what remains of the frame. maybe the farmers down south can fashion a plough out of it. ;D ;D ;D peace people.

Raul:
SIT!!!
STAY!!!
;D
The Anthem is for XC. This beautiful SC replica is for something more aggressive than that. And besides, you have your Anthem already, right?
Jtbul, GO buy the frame. I will support you all the way... wag lang financial... ;D

I weigh around 220 lbs, well, SC replica can be used on normal cycling only, I do not recommend it as making it as a sports bike/trail bikes/whatever you call it, ( and promoting not to buy pirated items too )
after the testing, the frame missed- aligned ( but not damaged, napipe lang, tumabingi, parang tw0-way ) i mean, if you ride it, the people behind you will notice that you're riding a "tabinge" frame. The fact that I only used it on normal Trails with few drops, mud and water-but for longer times....
VERDICT: Do not buy if your serious into the sports ( kailangan ko pa ba sabihin yun ? hahahahah .....BUT this is a democratic country, this is just my own point of view with matching testing, it's you who will decide )

A riding buddy bought a replica superlight. After less than 3 months of use, a hairline crack appeard on the swing-arm lingkage. Its a cheap FS frame at less than 5K. But as they say, you get what you pay for.

Yep, GTS are true bike manufacturer, they invest, they have QC, though not a hi-end stuff, at least they have a legal name in the industry unlike those who's copying the works of legitimate companies. ...and GTS is a good Frame, forget the "GTS lang yan" lines! hehehhehehhe
