[Closed] Enigma Bikes...

Looks lovelly, but over £900 for a steel frame puts it well outside of my price range. Is it really worth that much more over plenty of quality steel frames in the £300-£500 range?

They do look very nice. PJay you couldn't help me out and name a few nice frames in that price range for me to do a bit of research on? I am looking at steel road frames and struggling to find anything outside the Genesis Equilibrium.

I'm afraid not, I was thinking mountain bike frames (Pipedream Sirius/Scion, Genesis Latitude etc.). I don't know much about road bikes although I'm sure that others can help out.

Still not ridden mine so can't comment on how good or bad it is.

A bit closer though

You've just included that bit of garden to wind people up, haven't you?

ha ha - no time for that metro-sexual pastime of gardening - but I did make the fence though 🙂

It isn't a garden anyway, that's where I hose the bike down - so there! 😆

Very nice Woodsman!
How much did it cost to get the forks sprayed to match the frame?

Thanks Alex!

I did all the paint work myself, when I was quiet at work. The frame was sating black when I got it, the forks white. It is a bit of a faf doing the forks, got to be stripped down for a start.

If you were having your frame done where ever) then it would be more cost effective to supply the stripped uppers and lowers to the painter at the same time. Not sure if that helps any.

Cheers - BTW I think the colour you've chosen is absolutely spot-on

I test rode a black gloss fillet brazed version, a right beauty. As is yours woodsman 🙂

plenty of quality steel frames in the £300-£500 range

I think your and my definitions of quality differs somewhat! Most of/if not all of what I have seen in that price range could only be described as shonky!
