Re: I just go by ETT. I'm 5'7". Like 54cm ETT road frames. I like 56 - 58cm ETT MTB frames. That can be found on anything from a 14" Barracuda a2r to a 19.5" Trek 4000. So you never know.

Yes!!! That certainly looks like the one. Thanks so much for the ID. If I ever get the brake bit that's firmly concreted itself to the left rear brake post off of there I might get some 26" wheels on. Although it's pretty fun as-is.

Hello all, this came in to the non-profit bike shop where I work as a bare frame. At first sight I figured it was a Marin, since I remember some of them having nickel plating but as I looked at pics I noticed no Marins had the tapered stays that this has. I tried to get pics of some of the...
