Post by: Munnyella on March 16, 2011, 08:28 AM

Hi guys

looking at buying an Alone `maiden' frame, mid BB, 21" TT, any comments?

Are they made in the UK?

advice/alternatives from Winstanleys £59 frame sale please (don't want a euro BB)

FBM make their own frames in the US. I think they make a few frames for a few other people too, as do S&M, and probably Standard


(eg: Metal bikes used to be made at S&M. Cult got some of their early frames made at FBM but I think they are all Taiwan made frames now)

Spooky Cycles used to make frames up for other companies (ie Metal pre- S&M) - are they still going, or have they gone over to MTB's?

my mate is sponsered by alone, pretty solid bikes and can take some abuse. at £59 you can't go wrong.
