Rigid but extremely shredable!


Oooh I haven't seen a monkey in this color yet. Must be an older one judging by the dropouts.

Rad

Oh shoot... must hide the wallet...

Ns surge would be a solid bet? The current surge 650b frame is the same exact frame as the older 26 model. Other than that maybe try finding a chromag stylus


This... Surge

WOW, one of the best looking Stanton's i've seen, with the subtle hints of colour matching looks real smooth and business liketup would look even better with seat lowered a100mm or so

I like this, as a rigid in that colour yellow looks nasty mean

Askng here becuse this is where the knowledge is and my current build is in the thread.
Looking for a frame to replace my much loved BFe as it is jst a bit too short and steep after riding my Evil Insurgent for a few months.
I'm looking for something steel with an HA of 65 ish and an SA of around 73 - 75 ish.
Reach would be nice at 425 - 435mm.
Also 26" are the big thing here which is proving to be a bit of a problem in my search.
I'm wondering if there are any options other than the new 26" BFe (slightly on the steeper side but workable) or is that really my only option? If it is I'm not too worried.
Hopefully my ramblings make enough sense this time.

PP Shan with 26" dropouts. Reach is probably not long enough though is it. I don't think there is anything else.

NS Eccentric. 425 reach in a medium. Takes 27.5 or 26. HA is a little steeper but by no means actually 'steep'. Plus you have steel and alu options.
