   so i'd like to pick up a s/s frame or ideally one that's interchangeable - so with a budget of under £200 for new or s/h what would you recommend. it's going to be for seaside duty over the summer and will be locked up in public during the day so nothing too bling...

   thx

   Is my budget unrealistic or do frames like this not exist...

   There are frames about with sliding/interchangeable dropouts, but for £200 I think you'll need to go secondhand. A 2010 Pipedream Sirius would probably fit the bill as would a Kinesis Decade Virsa Prestige or a sliding dropout Inbred. The problem is I suppose having to wait around for something to turn up for sale.

   i'd look around for a sliding dropout inbred. well under your budget. i'm same dimensions as you and run 18", but a 16" will fit you too, if you want something a bit more chuckable. ETT is the same.
