eskimo Posted August 12, 2008 Report Share Posted August 12, 2008 As no one else has replied;It is a nice sensible looking frame. But i read they couldn't take a bashing to well. But it does have twin headtube gussets, non tubed yoke + all the other fancy features most mod frames have. So i'd say it would be fine for the average rider if you were to use a brake booster for support. The geo seems alright too.Worth a shout at £189 posted.
