Both use the same frame material and were almost certainly manufactured by the same company.
The Alpin is a much nicer bike for sure, offered $200 for Alpin and $150 for this bike. I have yet to get a message from Alpin but OP for Mikado will think about it. I have nothing to lose but wait for the time being. Thanks for your input, appreciate it! Next time I will snatch an Alpin frame if I see it, being that I saw one for $25 a week ago although it was small, would have been a decent flip knowing what I know now lol.
