Morning all,
Looking to change my GT Grade to something with more tyre clearance.
The Tripster AT's looking favorite at the mo but for similar (don't give me lottery number options!) money what are the other frame/fork options?
Cheers
Tim
Ns rag +
Sonder Camino AL. Half the price for V2 frame and forks.
Theres a thread somewhere on here with good info.
I like the Rzg but only want F/F so I can spec it my way.
Will look at the Sonder
Cheers

Or the Ronda's can be purchased frame only Ali, steel, carbon

Pinnacle Arkose on offer at evans. Quite a light frame. The 4 has a full carbon fork. Take a 40mm Nano easily.
Camino Al good for 650b but a bit heavier than the Arkose.
I have a 2017 Saracen Hack frame, forks and parts for sale. Large 56/58 I've ran it 650 and 700, lots of tyre space.
Thompson R9300 is on the racier end as far as geometry goes but has decent tyre clearance. I was eyeing one up as well as Tripster AT (tried one, very nice but definitely seemed on the burlier end of the spectrum), Rondo Ruut and an Arkose but ended up getting a Bowman Foots Cray second hand.
Thanks all. Really helpful suggestions.
Sonders looking good for what I NEED it to do rather than going all super pimp and having another bike sat there being under used :O)
the new Cotic Escapade looks rather nice and has clearance for 650b x 47
