jandamna Posted August 16, 2007 Report Share Posted August 16, 2007 Hi.Currently i ride a saracen mad 2.zero mod, it has a wheelbase of 1000mm, and the centre of the bb to top of the headtube, is 600mm, hopefully on august the 23rd, i should be getting £150, so i will be looking for a second hand frame, I was looking at the monty 221pr, but im not sure because it has a really short back end, and was wondering what frame you guys would recomend? I would really like a frame similar to my current one because i reallylike how it rides ThanksJan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muel Posted August 16, 2007 Report Share Posted August 16, 2007 You will struggle to move the bits from a saracen onto a different frame, they are 20" rear wheel aren't they? I thought so anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard jersey Posted August 18, 2007 Report Share Posted August 18, 2007 Stay on the bike you have which you say you like untill you don't like it and want something better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_Owen. Posted August 18, 2007 Report Share Posted August 18, 2007 yes mate you will need to change the rear wheel, tyre, and i think those saracens have vees, so youl either need a magura or dengura or the adaptors to change magura mounts to vees. and i doubt very much you will eb able to get all of that lot for £150, and thats before you have even thought about the frame. i would just do what other people above have said ad upgrade parts on your existing bike rather than getting a new frame, especially if you like how it rides at the moment. also if i does snap or crack you might be able to get a new one off waranty, depending on how long you have had the bike and how long the warranty is. hope i helped Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
