After breaking my singular swift (and my hand!) im on the look out for a new 29er

im not sure if i want to get a complete bike or a frame.

But im looking at a Spot Brand longboard if i can get one in the UK? if not i might see about another Swift, though the Qball looks quite cool! or i might get a complete Haro Mary XC, or Voodoo

has anyone got any ideas or advice, any other examples not fused as long as its steel or know where i can get spot brand frames in the uk?

Cheers Steve

Pulled the back wheel out of the frame and spread the rear triangle ๐Ÿ˜ณ all seemed good when i put it on, should have double checked how tight it was/seated it correctly.

Cheers Steve

Sam seems a nice chap, he may do you a crash replacement deal if you ask nicely?

How bad is the damage? I'll buy it if it's cheap and a medium size.

I want to do a belt drive conversion so I'd have to chop the dropout anyway. Just didn't want to do it to a perfectly good frame.
