Hello
It's not often I venture to this side of the forum, though I'm a regular lurker and occasional poster/classifieds watcher across the way in the road bit.
A lot of my friends are getting into cyclocross or trick frames and I'm getting jealous of the versatility and ride-it-off-the-kerb-ability of their bikes.
I'd like to make my own singlespeed winter bike out of an old hardtail MTB frame with rigid forks, 32-35mm tyres etc.
Ideally I'd have an old GT frame as I love the triple triangle aesthetic, but I'd be interested in anything that's going.
The cheaper the better - I'm currently also scouring the <£50 Ebay offerings, but would rather buy from someone knowledgeable and reputable.
I'm 6ft2 so will need something big - but I'm pretty hopeless at sizing mountain bike frames so would appreciate some guidance here.
Thanks in advance!
