domonza Posted September 3, 2006 Report Share Posted September 3, 2006 Hi, im thinking of building up a short stock as a sort of project. I am 5,3 and want something quite short,What bike do you reccomend getting, i was think of maybe an adamant A1 1065 or something like that, high bb short frame you know what i mean. do you think this would be ok or do you have any other suggestions.CheersDOM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ali C Posted September 4, 2006 Report Share Posted September 4, 2006 get the adamant if you want an exspnsive pogo stick (man I am getting bored of slating high bb bikes now )Get an ashton if you actually want a bike to ride and have fun on.

domonza Posted September 4, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 4, 2006 Hmm am so tempted to buy a adamant a1do they ride and fell dead short. Cheers for replies aswell DOM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lawrence osborn Posted September 5, 2006 Report Share Posted September 5, 2006 Well really the bike is very nice to ride even though i ride mod, the adamant is so easy on its back yet still feels manouvarable. It's up to you but still rather than just going along with me try and get a ride on one and also try a few other bikes because i'm 5'10" so it will probally feel much different to you than it does me, but all round it is a very nice bike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ali C Posted September 5, 2006 Report Share Posted September 5, 2006 believe it or not, there more to a bike than how good it is on the rear wheel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brettoll Posted September 5, 2006 Report Share Posted September 5, 2006 What about a Revell? Ive got pretty much a complete bike going for 420 posted.......all it needs is bars and stem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greetings Posted September 5, 2006 Report Share Posted September 5, 2006 (edited) Hmm am so tempted to buy a adamant a1 do they ride and fell dead short. They feel short but they're not. I'd get the Control S if I were you. The Adamant is great, but the high bb makes some things very difficult, ie. gaps. Wheelswaps aren't that easy either. I guess the new Pure is also a good choice. I'm very happy with my A1 because it has boosted my skills a lot, but I'd rather have a much more "universal" frame.edit: Spotted Rowan's post. Indeed the old Pure is a great frame, and with a long stem it feels just like a nice long bike. Edited September 5, 2006 by Inur Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
