I've been slowly replacing bits on my 2001 Marin Nail Trail. Now only the frame and seat post remain. Should I bite the bullet and go for a new frame too? I rather fancy a Cotic Soul or Soda. Is the Soda worth £1000 more?

Yours indecisively,
Mugs

Cotic Soul is more versatile and £1000 cheaper. Cant really see the point in titanium frames personally. A soul would be all you'll need

You'll be fine with a Soul.

Go for the Soul, and then ride it - if you are really happy with the ride/geomotry etc then treat yourself to the Soda.

I bought a steel 456 as a winter frame, and then after riding it a few months everywhere, sold off my 6" FS and carbon XC race frames (kept all the other bits). Six months later I bought a 456Ti. And it is better.
