Looking at a handjob frame with the cable routing on the top tube and no brake bosses. How can i tell what year it it as i want to run 120mm forks?

seller just says it is pre 07

I believe pre 2006 only good for 100mm

cheers

will

mine’s 2007/2008. 15.5 “. Black. £170 posted…

2005… Same as mine… Fits a 100mm fork perfectly… And yeah, 100mm was the max for this years frame.

cable routing is on the top yours is under top tube, so is the one im looking at earlier still??

Teeto, isn’t yours a 2007? Looks like it. Good for up to 130mm if so, but best at a bit less imho.
Earlier one did have cable routing on top and 100mm max fork iirc

Hmm, I bought mine in 2006… so accually, you could be right.. 😳

Yes, I have the 2006 and it IS the newer geometry (and 120mm is spot-on, I have a Reba maxle on mine).

Mine also has under top-tube cabling, so sounds like you might want to give that one a miss.
