dan_addison Posted March 19, 2008 Report Share Posted March 19, 2008 heres a couple.243-http://www.twofortythree.com/html/product/slafr.htmlTransition trial or park-http://www.transitionbikes.com/2007/TrailOrPark.cfmNs Bitch-http://www.btinternet.com/~dirtscene/projectleeds/shop/products_nsbikes/nsbikes_bitch07.htmIve rode the bitch and the .243 both amazing frames the .243 is a little more towards the dirt size of things but will be brilliant for street or park. Out of the three i'd have the Transition, there so well made and so good looking.Or you could try a DMR or 24seven. Ive rode a couple of 24/7 nice light short frames(ps sorry about the links havent mastered the bb code yet!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

that NBR dude Posted March 19, 2008 Report Share Posted March 19, 2008 I rode one of the NS's the other day, they are really nice. Forgot about them, definitely worth considering. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dan_addison Posted March 19, 2008 Report Share Posted March 19, 2008 Also look at the static plan b. Mates got one ther so sexy when riding park. Dont think theyd be much cop on dirt it does feel a little to light and twitchy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
that NBR dude Posted March 19, 2008 Report Share Posted March 19, 2008 And also while you're at it, look at the Blk Mrkt Dob frame too. Seems to be going down well with a lot of people (not that we want to confuse you too much with loads of different frames) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NVWOCI WVS Posted March 19, 2008 Report Share Posted March 19, 2008 2008 NS Bikes Suburban 24" super nice frames! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mehukatti Posted March 19, 2008 Report Share Posted March 19, 2008 One of the nice things about that Suburban frame is the weight, about 2.4kg (5.29lbs) while some other street/dirt frames weigh over 3kg (6.61lbs+). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NVWOCI WVS Posted March 19, 2008 Report Share Posted March 19, 2008 and the geo, feel almost like my bmx to ride! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
austen Posted March 22, 2008 Report Share Posted March 22, 2008 Defenetly go for the NS! they are quality frames and are really nice to ride. i think they are around £300?If you dont want the NS go for a dmr rythm, i ride one and they are solid, you can put them through anything and they'll still be fine, they are also really nice to ride!austen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthew62 Posted March 22, 2008 Report Share Posted March 22, 2008 (edited) Have a look at the 24seven slacker. You can get a complete bike for £499 now and thats the new 2008 model. I built my girlfriend up an old 24seven Martin ogden frame i had which i use which is lovely then theres the Substance and the Deviant, all cool bikes from a good company. Worth a look.Edit: Just looked in to it a bit more and you can buy the Substance frame for £179.99 in a choice of colours and its designed to run both 26'' and 24'' wheels. Looks lovely, i'm interested myself!!!! Edited March 22, 2008 by Matthew62 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich J Posted March 26, 2008 Report Share Posted March 26, 2008 For 14mm dropouts look at hubs such as NS, NPJ and such. Dmr may do one too.. New NS frames are definately worth a look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

monkeyseemonkeydo Posted April 9, 2008 Report Share Posted April 9, 2008 Euro BB is the term used by BMX companies for what we would call 'normal' BB's- i.e. the thread size is the same as we use for all ISIS and square taper BB's. So in that respect, the answer is yes. However- I'm not sure what width shell (68 vs. 73mm) is classed as 'Euro'... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
