Haven't ridden one but right off the bat I can say that the geo looks a little funky for a 7" bike, 69º HA?

For that price though who knows, I mean the Swinger 6-way is practically worth the $399 alone...
 
I had one, they are a very beefy bike. its heavy too, the shock is great on it, for 399 you cant go wrong, They had a problem with the swing arm braking on big hits, but they got a new one on them now that is very beefy. buy it unless you want to spend the 1399 for the bullet frame, that the 69 is a copy of.

Check out the MTBR forums. There are a few guys that have them, and it seemed like were a pretty good deal for the money. You can get the whole bike for about 1000, so even if you bought the bike n parted it out for the components you would be coming out ahead...

It's the Superblow house brand. It's a good bike for the money. A buddy of mine has one. I rode it for a little bit. It handles really quickly for what it is. I would say go for it for 399.

Well that is what Santa Cruz advertises for a Bullit, it is about 69* (how the hell did you make the degree symbol?) with a 5" fork.

Checked my Bullit with an 03 Super T and the head angle came in at 66*.

I would think that the Weyless would be more around ~67* with a 7" fork.
