I’ve seen this disc compatible cx frame over at CRC but can’t find any reviews or details really. Anyone got any?

Not worth the risk

Can you expand on that, not had a lot of Pro-Lite stuff, but it’s all been OK so far, and was looking at a TT frame they do.

Yeh, well thats it really. I mean who are they? Has anyone got any experience of their stuff?

If I was going to spend a few hundred on a frame, I’d get something that has been about a while and is “tried and tested” rather than reduced by a shit load at CRC because no one wants it.

David, that’s kind of why I started the thread, isn’t it? 😉

Ha, fair do’s!

But I’m telling you, you wont find any answers anywhere. No one owns one!

I’d probably be more tempted by a full “no name” carbon cx frame off ebay/china.

Haven’t ridden a disc version but I’ve owned 2 of the original canti Pro-lite Piemonte’s.
And think they are great frames. Not very cool but they are v light and stiff.
TBH they are waaayyy over priced RRP, So £225 seems to be about right even with the carbon stays.

Geometry is similar to a Ridley/Guerciotti cross bikes. SO high BB

I’m 6’1″ and ride a 60cm (56cm horiz TT).
I can post pics if you like….

I can also flog you my 62cm (57cm) frame at a bargain price if you are interested…

Thanks ackie. Pics would be great.

Presumably your 62 is non-disc? i really don’t want to go back to rim brakes… ( unless it really is a bargin and i can use an adaptor but suspect that won’t be an option with a carbon rear end )

David – I’ve been looking at the Chinese carbon too. For disc compatible they’re still 450ish

Really? Where from? I’m assuming thats with forks though?

I had a road frame a few years ago, think it was about £300 (with forks)!
