This frame is simple but absolutely beautiful. If I have this frame I wouldn't build a bike out of it I will place it on one of my shelves. Thanks for sharing Abu.

That is a nice looking frame. Did the dealer know why FnHon decided to use chromoly instead of aluminium?

I don't know. I suspect this is a somewhat limited run of frames. Frame only, no complete bikes. It does not appear on the FnHon website.

Frankly, I don't know how you can get one in the Homeland. you could cajole the retailers that have only recently started bringing in the likes of Litepro, Crius and FnHon to bring them in. a potential issue is that these Gusts seems to be a limited run. good luck...

This is the listing of China distributor. I don't see this model in it. Let me check if they post overseas.

It's the images that circulate generally here in Indonesia. But I've seen them all with my own eyes. Silver and Cobalt Blue are my favs. My SG pusher reported there will also be a black limited edition.
