im trying to build a stock bike this summer, but im kinda tight on money right now so i need suggestions for a frame. is there a decent or good frame for around or under 400? Im about 5 foot 9 and would like something longer than my monty 219. Im looking for something other than Planet X. Thanks

Never seen that before, look's good though. If not then go for something with a good back ground like echo, zoo and monty etc.

I emailed Soul Cycles because I heard there might be a new version coming out soon. This is what they said.

There is consideration for another Trials frame in the future, but right now nothing is certain. We are re-considering whether we will continue producing trials bikes. A strong move is being made to tighten up the line and focus mostly on DJ/4X/FR and some odd XC disciplines.

$260 for a frame and fork is a good price and would allow more people to get started. I hope they keep selling it.

P.S. What are "odd XC disciplines?

I've had some ride time on the Session. Rides very similar to my Planet-X Tibo, I think the geometry is pretty close.

you might be able to find a cheap frame on that site.. Trials frames has seem to have gone up, Tim is selling his Control for $490, which is not too bad..
