Title: Shortest Flatland frame
Post by: the_cyclops on July 03, 2007, 06:12 PM

Does anyone know what the absolute shortest of short flatland frame available is?

I need to get hold of a very short top tubed 20"

(for reasons that will be revealed once I have one!)

Cheers

most of the shortest are 18.5 toptube, ares, felt, and proper come in these sizes,

alans are doing proper dolomites brand new for 50 quid at the mo, their very simular to fly simple frames, heres mine :)

i really like'd the simple but at the time i could get the dolomite for 80 quid so i went for it and with the dosh i saved i got the
st martins cranks from flatlandfuel,

i've since sold the suelo forks and got black odyssey zero offset, this is my favourite ride, its soooo smooth, the khe wheelset is awsome and was very good value again from flatlandfuel, :daumenhoch:
