Now that's an offer one cannot refuse.

I also like the idea of doing things myself but as OP also alluded to, it can be dangerous. LOL (without a knowledgeable person alongside)

The other issue sometimes experienced is not having the appropriate tools.

Enjoy experience Ncayi.

Props to RobertWhitehead.!!

In my case, I have neither the tools nor the experience. But I am glad to say I can at least index my gears and that's about it. So, I always like to defer to people who know what they are doing as I expect in my own field of expertise.

So I intend to make full use of Robert's offer and I will probably learn a few things.

A turn-key solution from Craft Cycles is also not a bad route.

It will get you up and running on quality work very quickly compared to DIY.

 

I don't think the R1200 mentioned earlier is not a bad price for building across to a new frame.
