regarding the comment about my post checking the tightness of the bolt
s
it realy isn't about checking them. the pitch on the thread is to steep so they can rattle loose in not much time at all.

I would have thought that one reason for assembly in Spain is it would be logistically difficult to import the non-chinese parts of the Xispa into China.

I wonder if they all come with the flatslide - or is that for the David Cobos 'WORKS" machine!

The official spec says OKO 28mm so I guess it does...

The reason i raised this was that the French Xispa website lists the carby as a 26mm Dellorto - but Photos of David Cobos indicate an 28mm OKO???......so maybe the OKO flatslide is an EXTREEEEME upgrade

I dunno.

Well by the looks of things there's every chance that it will be competing directly with the current models with both similar price and quality. I honestly think that if this is the case they need to have something special about them for people to sway to these bikes and pay a similar price for them... hmmm shall be interesting!

Just a wee bit of news if anyone is interested.
We will have all 3 models, the 125, 250 and 280 Xispa Trials bikes leaving Spain shortly for Australia.
Prices will be set as soon as possible when we are aware of final shipping costs.
From all accounts they have far exceeded expectations in the UK, so I'm really looking forward to them finally landing in Australia.
I will post news as it comes to hand.
