    chestrockwell – I’m selling an Orange Sub Zero (2nd generation) frame right now, medium size, with a few bits attached. Email in profile if you’re interested at all – happy to send pics etc. Lovely ‘hardcore hardtail’ frame, suits 150-160mm forks, great fun to ride, and you won’t see another like it (it’s in Brass Monkey goldy-brown colour).

    I’m loving my BFe with 130mm forks at the minute, it just eggs you on into being a complete idiot much to the chagrin of the lady who feeds the horses* in the morning.

    This is how i’ve got my 456 evo II set up, this thing can take a battering and rides real nice.

    Second hand frames are dirt cheap and only £190 new I think.

    Stop reading any more of this nonsense and go and find a chameleon frame. They are amazing bikes and are as good pootling down a canal towpath as they are on big jumps, DH tracks and everything inbetween. I use mine in the winter for the above and it never fails to put a smile on my face. I think the sweet spot for fork travel is around 140mm. I have talas forks and can run it at 130mm or 160mm but I rarely go up to the 160mm.

    Resurected my 08 Genesis io “Retina burn” build 😆

    10 mins into first ride in new guise I realised why I’d kept frame it in loft last 5 years 😀

    26″ wheels rock keep your wagon wheels 😆

    Those chameleons look good but what about a genesis alptitude

    Thanks for the offers above but the smallest I can go is large. Do like the Chameleon very much so still undecided. I’ll be doing research over the weekend.
