i looked at those too and ultimately elected not to get one because it seemed too risky. there is no recourse when ordering from international sellers. as far as construction, i guess you need to ask yourself how you're going to ride it. if you're going to be abusing it, going generic might not be the best idea. but if you're building up a cruiser and fun bike on a budget, go for it. it's not bad in terms of styling besides the gawdy graphics. it looks a lot like the felt frame, especially in the top tube.
