warick_wrx Posted December 30, 2022 Share Would depend on what your requirements are. Aero, climbing bike, endurance, all rounder etc etc. Also different brands different geometry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frosty Posted December 30, 2022 Share Would get a custom frame; made to size. The Ouzo and nonky 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WernerStrydom Posted December 30, 2022 Share a Tad confusing. If you say 40K for the frame, what about the rest of the bike. Disc or rim, the list goes on and on, and price tags too... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frosty Posted December 30, 2022 Share 57 minutes ago, Mamil said: By who? If it were me, I’d probably go for something Gravel-ish, woth some generous tyre clearance. This is available for $1599 (frame, fork and headset). If not that, then probably a Ti-frame, so spoilt for choice with three good local builders. Luckily I’m not in the market, so don’t have to think too hard. nonky and Me rida my bicycle 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
