Cant go wrong with a fram from frank (;

[deltree]

Nice. I'd love a FTW or Spooky crit bike. What are the TT/ST measurements?

[shlammed]

Frame and weldments look great.

I toyed with the idea of welding my own alloy frame being that I do all kinds of custom fabrication (for cars).
Cant wait to see the buildup.

Beefy! Why not keep it raw? Drop some fear on your fellow contestors at racestart

Knef, I had the same thought initially. Here's an updated photo.

Thanks Fuchs,

What do you think of single ring w/ guard for this one like your 4kg wonder?

That paint job is awesome.

What are the ST/TT/HT lengths?

Forgive my ignorance, but what is the actual frame material/tubing?

"GNARLY ASS TUBES!"

frank is an awesome dude. he does some amazing work. can't wait to see this built up

[Fuchspk]

That frame is not a big one. This will let the frame look more special as it already do alone as it is so "fat"

The singelchainring works totally fine for me but it always depends on where you are riding and how you are riding i guess.

This is going to be wild.
