Bit complicated. Really want a HT that is long, low and slackish like my ST4. To suit my short-legged, long armed gibbon like frame. Had the cove for nearly four years and loved it. But every time I switch from the ST4, it just feels too short now. And I don't want to run a longer stem/layback etc on it as then it just feels horrible.
So options. Frame for 120mm non tapered forks. Mostly for zining around the Forest of Dean, but also for riding all winter everywhere. Has to be less than I get for the Cove frame which eBay research suggests is between £400 and £500
Not a Cotic much as I love them, but they don't fit (had one). Not a PA (had one, liked it, too butch for what I need).
I was taken by a carbon 456 I saw at Bike Science which obviously is bit more grr but for £1500 amazing value. Especially as I can buy it on my (own company) BTW scheme.
Preference tho is just a frame swap. What should I be looking at?
