Don't want to spend much more than £700 really, not too bothered if the frame is a previous model...

Buy a Giant Trance X from Wiggle for £850 (plus get £50 voucher)
Sell redundant parts and recoup £2-300.Hey presto brand new frame for considerably less than your budget.

Cycle Surgery had some but I think they're all gone now. Maybe worth giving them a call.

Fat treads are selling off 2007 Titus Motolites for £1300 - which is a pretty good deal - well I thought so 😉

mickasaki - weve sold out of the wolf ridge frames now

Got some Yetis coming in in the next few days that will be nicely priced.

Also if youve got the capital availible to do it then there are certainly a few offer full bikes out there at the moment that you could split down and sell the parts on and end up with the frame for very little. With the price rises at the moment, brand new second hand (as daft as that sounds) kit is making decent money atm.

It's not new, but it's in great condition, and it is a good 5" frame http://www.singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/fs-prophet-frame-large-350

Thanks lads, to be honest I saw the maverick a couple of days ago and that seems to be far the best deal, when I bought the 575 I nearly bought an ML7/5 and wasn't sure I had bought the right bike so looks like I will go for one now I have sold the 575.

Plus, I had Maverick forks on both my bikes and only have good things to say about them.

Plus the frame is white too, which I quite like....

Definitely worth condsidering buying a whole bike and flogging the parts off.

Did that with a Reign myself a few weeks ago and after selling wheels, fork and brakes the frame is currently costing me about £600 - with seatpost, saddle, bb, rear mech, front mech, stem, bars and crankset all either utilised, kept as spares or still to be sold.

Snotrag Wolfridge frames were the 2007 Versions.

Tbh we could probably do one more (but weve only got smalls left) - weve just been splitting a few down full bikes (as we got so many at the time) into a few build kits to put onto a few frames we had left over and also onto some frames to run as demo bikes. They just sold a lot quicker than i expected £400 for a frame with a £330 rear shock probably has something to do with it!

Those Mavericks are an absolute steal - i looked at taking the lot from Extra aswell i dunno why i just didnt fancy them at the time, you win some you lose some! :o(

Yetis have arrived - some decent prices on the 08 turq 575s and i got a couple of ARC's too but i might have to treat myself to one of these!
