Watter een??

[lollos]

Ok, so I decided to let go of my "old" frame and upgrade. Just want to upgrade the frame, so here is the few I have in mind. Which one will you choose? And why? I'm not going to put prices with - I just want your opinion without you looking at prices. Don't look at the specs on these bikes - it's for the frame only.

Here goes:

 

Scott Spark 30 (carbon) 2008/2009?

Giant Anthem X (aluminium) 2011

Bianchi Caal 8000 (aluminium) not sure about year

Sintesi 505 (aluminium) 2011

Specialized epic , but I can't find a small in my price range....

 

So, what do you think? Please help. Thanks!

I've got a mate selling his Scott Spark 30 frame if you decide on the Scott. It's a medium and think it's '09. He's just bought a Scott Scale RC frame. He's got his long travel full sus so is going the hardtail route for the other bike.

you left out a number of steel and titanium frames. But then you are still racing......

Ok, it looks like its between the Giant and the Scott then... another question - must I buy a 3 year older frame because its carbon(spark), or a new aluminium one(anthem)??

Thanks all for your input so far.
