The geometry of it is quite good (385cs, about 1075wb and about +15bb rise) but the frame is a little bit modest. They don't care about the design because they don't wanna sell them in the western countries. These frames are gonna be sold only in Ukraine and Romania... But at least they are cheap!

Not really... As I know the 03' model was weaker, but the 04' is OK. There are 2 sponsored riders (you could see them in "Antigravity Trial" video before) and they didn't have any problems with their 04' models.

i kow the new magura version will be
1080 wb
385 cs
and i just saw it in biketrial.ru forum. looks quite nice. and bb seems higher.
but it is cheap not like others trials frames - a frame has something wrong (i think)

the only bad part is, what do you do when you snap the derailleur hanger? it's been known to happen every now and then in trials...
