doppelganger Posted June 13, 2012 Share Hey guysAfter some thought I have decided to buy a 26" DS frame and use my parts from my current 26" HT. Is there anybody on here that have connections to get frames at good prices? I have tried a few shops and they are just not interested to get back to me with prices etc. I am considering a Merida 96, however I will look at other brands too. I have been following the Classifieds but no Large frames ever seem to make it on here. Any help? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doppelganger Posted June 13, 2012 Share Haven't made up my mind in terms of budget, that's why I am hoping to get a few ideas and then take it from there... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hairy Posted June 13, 2012 Share I might well have a, wait for it, "as new" Spesh Epic Marathon should you be interested. Buddy bought it for the parts when it was a few months old and he has never ridden the frame following the purchase as he is a medium. The frame has subsequently been living at my home and his as of late and looking for a home. Pics attached, should you be interested then let me know.

Hairy Posted June 13, 2012 Share Cape Town, should you be really interested I am sure he can take the frame to an lbs of your choice to verify the condition for you. Let me know, when you know, then I will let him know if there might be anything else you might want to know. Know what I mean? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
