Born Frame Strength?

Recommended Posts

Hi.

Riding's gone seriously downhill since going back to a shorter mod - and it's getting me depressed :P

Looking at getting a longer frame, and really like the look of the Born mods (HS33).

Thing is - they're pretty light, and I'm not particularly smooth. Quite the contrary, in fact :(

Has anyone had any experience with them? What are they designed for? Hopefully not a comp frame. I ride street 90% of the time, and like trying to go big.

Saw that video of Diego Magno on one and it took a beating in that, but there's no saying how long it'll last after :giggle:

Geo is exactly what I want, but I don't wanna buy it and snap it. Nearest competition is looking like the Echo 2011, but I kinda think that if you think your bike looks better, you'll get some sort of placebo effect, think that means it IS better and thus ride better.

Help is much appreciated, or suggesting alternatives (but not Rockman. Too worried of snapping them to even consider it).
