Bucci's and YCF have very good frames and tend to invest in better components but they charge for it.
And WPB sell their bikes for £500-£1000 so you cant expect the same quality, I'm sure they're more than capable of producing that quality but they'd be charging 2k plus prices also.
When the guy who left this review paid £800 for a brand new complete motorcycle which includes a £300 YX140 engine and free delivery and he comments on a slightly imperfect finish on the frame and swingarm, is this for real? I think these companies do a fantastic job of giving us bikes for such little money, could you build a bike from scratch, advertise it for sale, ship it to someone and then ask only £800 for it.... and then give the vat man his £150 cut?. These companies giving us these bikes even with a few inperfect bits here and there are amazing. If you want perfect then buy a Husky or KTM at £8k. Rant over
Youre correct they do usually do a good job but you had paid attention i was comparing the build to previously owned STOMP bikes i have in my collection. At the same price range I found this bike to be lacking in quality. Nothing wrong in pointing that out. And just because i pay £800 price tag doesnt mean i should get poor welds and paint work done by stevie wonder. The paint you dont see is perfect lol.Since this post i found my engine has missing bolts, gasket, rear brake system is DOA, damage to forks lol Stomp are sorting it...its possbile i just got a bad one
