You might have gotten that from me - did it come with a full panto group?
The Scapin that I had was truly unimpressive to look at - the paint was awful even by low standards and the workmanship was likewise uninspiring. I think they misapplied the primer. I thought it was a turd in terms of presentation, but it was far too big for me and I never rode it. Even the panto looked sloppy.
Based on the one I briefly had...it's not a brand I have any interest in owning.
