Eduardo Posted February 1, 2009 Report Share Posted February 1, 2009 Onza t rex? pretty long though, low top tube and quite low seat tube, no bb rise, but might aswell be steel cos its so heavy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muel Posted February 1, 2009 Report Share Posted February 1, 2009 ok been riding trials for a few years now and am having some trouble choosing a framei dont just want members to throw frame brands and names at me i want something following the below guide1 - no seats 2 - on rise bb 3 - 4 bolt mounts4 - short frame - in not that tall5 - not new - havent thay much money6 - not too old - after 05 maybe7 - nothing rare - something i could find on this forum8 - no steel - must be alu9 - short seat tube 10 - low top tube 11 - 135mm rear spacingThe legnth of the wheelbase has a tiny effect on the legnth of the cockpit, the bar/stem make the biggest difference to the feel of a bike, that and the head angle. I'm about 5'10 and I've got a Kot MS2, which has an 1100 wheelbase, but it's only got a 71.5 degree head angle, so it doesn't feel very long.Also that list describes pretty much every frame made since 2005, any idea on the rest of the geometry? High/Low BB, Steep/Slack Head Angle etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
