Bike hunt...

Post by FLV »

So. Anyone bored enough to help me looking a new bike again?

I never did buy that steel hardtail i was looking for, I just rebuilt my salsa and am riding that. In the meantime Ive been looking for a short travel full suspension frame.

Here's what I'm looking for frame only, or cheap enough to strip and build with my nice parts,

29er
Preferably non boost but I could rebuild my back wheel of needed.
Suitable for 120mms forks as I have some.
Needs to take a bottle cage for when the mood takes me that way.

That's it really, doesn't sound to hard but a lot of transverse nearly 3 grand, I can buy a motorbike for that money :grin:


Any ideas?

Have you seen the hard tail frames Matt is making under the 18 label?

Nice!

Banshee phantom,
Rear dropouts are changeable between boost and non boost (potentially between 29 and 27+ as well)
