    Hi all

    Anyone ever heard of them? Chinese and cheap as chips. Thought I might risk one on my 'shoestring' GT250 renovation.

    Cheers

    I have heard of them but I don't know how good they are. I had a GT 250 decades ago.

    Oftentimes one gets exactly what one pays for.
    I would suggest seeing of there is an equivalent piston that's made in Taiwan. Chinese manufactirung has gotten better, but there is still a broad range of quality coming from there.

    Thanks chaps - change of plan for the time b, but might be back to this later. Cheap Chinese is not my preference but I've got a lot of outgoings at the moment (Kids and estranged wife:mad:). Mitaka I think are Taiwanese and better than most so will keep an eye out on those.
