I've just ordered/bought/won/highest-biddered a couple of 14" Ex[alt] frames and wondered if anybody on here had had one. I'm wondering what to expect if/when they get built up really, other than 'a bicycle' that is, obviously 😀

14"
A small bicycle.
Why'd you buy 2?
Dunno. I panicked I suppose. I bought one now (frame with forks) while was bidding on the other and it's rude not to pay for stuff you bid on 😆
Honestly, - expect it to be heavy.
I meant expect both frames to be heavy especially if ridden together.
Expect back pain 🙂
Nice frames, get some monster forks and you'll be well away. Not much chance you'll break one, so no need for a spare 🙂
Bombproof. Heavy. Had an exalt a few years back, initially ran it as a 4x bike with 120mm forks and hated it. Swapped out to 160mm lyric's and it was transformed. A real monster of a bike for hitting DH tracks and big jumps. Even did some xc on it with a 500mm Blackspire seat post... Not that I'm suggesting that was a good idea, it was 37lbs...
Cromoly steel equivalent of the banshee morphine.
Good frame for budget hard tail dh racing and freeriding
Have fun!
