    Hi China V,

    Was wondering if you've had any rust issues yet, or has any of the aluminium started to fizz up yet ?

    Cheers

    My toys are stored inside and don't see much rain, so I haven't noticed any signs of rust or oxidation. The hardware used on most Chinese bikes is pretty poor grade. The Galaxy has a lot of aluminum, so it's probably less prone to rusty parts.

    Cheers!

    Hi ChinaV,

    I am going to factory to get the bike licensed Dec. 7 and should be in and out of the factory for a few days to sort things out. Then I want to head for Hainan to break in the bike. If you are in that area or are interested to come to the factory, please call my China mobile no.

    I think I have lost your no. due to a hickup of my cell phone.

    Cheers,

    Franki

    Hi Franki,
    You must be really excited about picking your new bike up ? How about some pictures of it when you get it ?
    Could you do me a favour whilst you are at Galaxy, and ask how the production of mine is coming along, if it's not too much trouble ?
    Cheers
    Andy

    Hi Andy,

    I am in China now and riding my new bike. I should be returning back to the factory tomorrow afternoon. I shall be asking about your biike's status but I can't promise on getting an reply over to you as I might not have internet access. After Dec. 10, I shall be heading for Hainan Island to run in my bike before [acking it up and ship to Yunnan. That will be the real start of my adventure rides.

    If there is anything that needs your urgent attention, of which I doubt very much, I will have ChinaV to contact you here.

    Expecting is a winderful thing to have

    Franki

    Hi Franki,

    Cheers Mate, i really appreciate it

    Was just wondering if the new tank design is going to slow production down ? I told Lydia from Galaxy that I would be happy with the old style tank, if it would speed things up. She said that they would try and offer me the new tank design if it didn't take too much time to sort out.

    Thanks again, and enjoy your trip

    Best Wishes

    Andy

    I can't wait to hear how the new bike is working. (I want the good and bad details) I and another teacher are very interested in it.
