Hairy Posted April 6, 2018 Posted April 6, 2018 Thanks man, it is a large frame and i am 182/183cm, the frame is rather roomy, i could have gone medium.I imported a Soma Steel MTB fork (made by tange) aaaages ago, it's been powdercoated from its original glossy black, unfortunately this resulted in the loss of the rad logo.Based on your pic of the bike, are you in the Table View area? I ask as I am potentially interested in the same frame, but would like to get a feel for sizing ......... and well I stay in the Table View area
Gravity Posted April 6, 2018 Posted April 6, 2018 cool Hairy, you are welcome to take it for a spin. I will Pm you my deets and we can meet up sometime. Hairy 1

I FLY Posted June 4, 2018 Posted June 4, 2018 Sadly my Lynskey Pro 29 frame has reached the end of its life. It may now become a wall decoration in my bike room. It started cracking on the joint between the seat and top tubes (on both sides) last July. I had it welded twice but on Saturday I noticed that it had cracked through the welds again and around the back of the seat tube. I can't justify the cost of a new Lynskey frame so I am looking at other options. Hairy 1

I FLY Posted June 4, 2018 Posted June 4, 2018 Those Momsen STR frames look great and are well priced!My exact thought. I saw one yesterday during the JUMA tour of the storm water systems and called Momsen this morning. Their medium frame has almost the same dimensions as my Lynskey medium frame. Hairy 1

Letum911 Posted June 5, 2018 Posted June 5, 2018 My exact thought. I saw one yesterday during the JUMA tour of the storm water systems and called Momsen this morning. A white one? Was most likely me PS. The Momsen is an awesome bike and most likely best bang for your buck. Wish you many happy miles!
