Davetrials Posted October 19, 2007 Report Share Posted October 19, 2007 check out a small all mountain frame, like a mountain cycle rumbleor a charge bikes frame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jambo Posted October 19, 2007 Report Share Posted October 19, 2007 Its all about the pashleys dude you can get a mhz frame supper cheap or if your not into steel buy a base ta26 tarty selling them cheap, they have a saddle and they ride beautifully Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eduardo Posted October 19, 2007 Report Share Posted October 19, 2007 (edited) It depends on how much street is going to be done on it and how much normal riding is going to be done as you dont want something with really bad geomtry for street and you dont want something long and low with a gear ratio like 18:12 ETC i would personally suggest getting something like a leeson or a giant, give clive a ringEdit: ignore the bit about gear ratio's, didnt know you were only after a frame :$ Edited October 19, 2007 by lazyboi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dabombkid Posted October 23, 2007 Report Share Posted October 23, 2007 base ta26 is a good all round frame, reasonably light, strong and copes ok with a sus (small) fork Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
