  2. I paid $250 shipped for my new 20" DX on ebay, and IIRC the 24" DX is
    (or was) available on UDC US for $260 or so, plus shipping. Where did
    you buy it from?

    Yeah, mine was $410.

    It costs that much because there is another 13% fee for importing a
    "Complete", which is stupid because it doesn't come built... but
    because all the parts needed are in the box... they can charge that.

  9. Yes, for that amount you could have gotten a Nimbus ISIS Trials w/
    moments and a better seat or an upgraded Qu-Ax or for $30 more you
    could have gotten an onza or you could have saved a little more and
    gotten a koxx.

  10. A E Bike was selling KH 24's for 417 $ not so long ago. They advertise
    full list price, but will sell below that if you email them and ask for
    their best price. I paid 371 $ for a 07 KH 20, delivered to my door in
    Florida, last May. They charged 8$ shipping !🙂

    Except your wrong.

    Nimbus ISIS didn't exist last year, and I don't live in the US.

    Exchange rate has also changed, so it would be significantly cheaper
    this year.

    I bought it from Unicycle.com, I can't remember how much was shipping.
    It was a Christmas present anyways, so really I didn't pay anything for
    it.

    You have to remember the exchange rate was a lot different last year in
    November.
