[#9379629]

After building a HT for my teenage son, med size, strip my FS 29er for parts, so just need a frame.
Any bargains spotted?

Charge cookers and genesis high latitudes are always good value on ebay. Got a cooker 4 and a set of Reba rl for less than £200 last week

Thanks all.
Ramin 1 ordered for £100. Anyone know if they're different to Ramin 2's, other than the colour and price?

Those frames look good for the money. If you mean Ramin 2 vs Ramin 4 (Evans website) then the pricing difference does look strange. However, the frame descriptions do have differences such as triple butting and smooth welds on the more expensive one (they may have just missed these out in the other description) which suggests a lighter weight and better finish. I would be interested in knowing the real differences though.

I though the Ramin frames also varied in tapered or straight forks as well as mountings for racks etc.

You would have to be stood looking at them...

HTs are 44 on all, so tapered works fine. It is a 4 (not a 1). £100 seems a bargain. We'll see.

Possibly as well !
