Hi all. My pals and I have decided to build up some budget 26" ht's for messing about on the moors. I'm looking for something 140mm or there abouts so have been casting glances at 2010-13 frames including the Orange P7 + Crush, Transition Trans Am, SC Camelion, Cotic Soul and Pace 303(?). All seem to be ballpark similar geometry so any thoughts from the masses would be appreciated. :-)

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 😆

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.
