I have heard a little bit about the 2012 GG Econ 250/280 models that are comming to the USA soon.

1) "They are basically 2010 models, but with less decals and Sachs steel forks.

They have tubeless rear wheels and tires and a Sachs rear shock."

and

2) "They will be like the 2010 Pro with fewer decals. They will have steel fork stanchions (the Pros have aluminum). The rear tire will be tubeless, but the rim will be the same as used back in 2005. The engine will be the 2012 engine, 250 or 280cc."

Does anyone have any confirmations or denials of this info? Anything to add?

Any tips from the 2010 GG 250/280 owners out there as far as set-up or maintenance?

Thanks!

Dave

You want a real 2010, try this http://albuquerque.craigslist.org/mcy/2945598001.html that`s my two cents on the econo`s. I would not buy one if you are a upper class rider. But if you just have to say you have a 2012 they are not that bad........................

Is the one in the craigslist ad yours? It looks good, and low hours too.

I've been riding the Advanced line for years, and I don't plan on moving up to Expert (ever). The Econ is less expensive, though.

No it is a friend who thought he wanted to ride again and never did. It is as `new`. We have about 3 eco`s around. All a little different.

Dave needs a new Raga.
