JT! Posted January 20, 2009 Report Share Posted January 20, 2009 (edited) So I've had 4 frames in the god knows how many years I've been riding. Da bomb then onto the t-lite, then i found they were both too short for me when i got the echo team (the big holey head tube one). Now I've got the cqueinereere which i really don't like, so much so i never learn't how to spell or pronounce the name of it.Anyway i may be selling it seeing as someone wants it buy i don't know what to replace it with.It needs to be long - especially in the stays, must be able to take a bashplate and a rear disc. But not overly pricey like anything from koxx.I'm thinking the GU ST, but the wheelbase puts me off, i loved the feel of my old echo and i think that was 1030mm wheelbase so there's quite a difference.So is there any other frames i'm missing off the list, or is the gu for me?Thanks guys!

J Trials 31 Posted January 20, 2009 Report Share Posted January 20, 2009 What's wrong with short frames? Also, doesn't the new Echo come in a long if your headed that way? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JT! Posted January 20, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 20, 2009 I don't like short frames.As far as i'm aware a lot of the new frames - zoo and echo don't have rear disc mounts, but i'll go look now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
