Depends how tall you are (but rumors are that different sizes are in the works) but the BlackBuck frame from OS Bikes is the best riding bike I have ever had (and on a parr with the Jones fugly bike I test rode) Swoopy steel frame, super-tight tollerance EBB, gear hanger, black and silver with red pin stripe paint ๐Ÿ™‚ Only one other in the UK....

I have the 18.5" one (only size available at the mo') and have run it with the rigid forks and Maverick SC32 29er forks. By far it is best with the rigids, it handles like a super quick lively 26" bike but with big wheels and that unstoppable juggernaut feel ๐Ÿ™‚

What you would expect from Mark Slate of WTB Pheonix fame, he sure knows how to design a frame.

$500 + $60 for the forks, email Mark for shipping info. [url= http://www.osbikes.com/ ]Website here[/url]
