Can anyone enlighten me with some standard info.started stripping what I think is my old 250 and a friend seems to think it could possibly be a trail boss ,the dropouts have been cut(which really fooks me off)but just wondered what the main differences between the two frames are :-) sorry about the shit phone pic

Is the seattube flared (slightly squished) where it meets the bottom bracket Ste? If it is, then it's a Trail Boss fella  :daumenhoch:

I think the Trailboss was Robbie Morales signature frame. When he left for Fit they renamed it the TRLS 250.
I'm not sure on differences. apparently the Trailboss was a STA front end with the Race bike rear, but straight guage tubing.
