Ideas 4 a good allround hardtail frame

[dodgy_bob_1]

i need some ideas for getting a good all round hardtail frame, not just a super laid back dirt jumper - something thats good for jumps but also for bashing around free riding on the trails. 26" wheel frames only.

list any ideas you have so i can check em out - nothing thats going to break the bank though

if any of you are selling a nice all round frame then PPM me.

frame

thanks for that, it sounds pretty nice, anyone got an idea of australian prices for the frame ?

the sidekick and trailstar are $700, so the switchbacks probably something simmilar to that

i still can't see why people would get a frame from a big company as an aftermarket buy, the reason the P serise and the norco supercross serise is so good is not because of the frame, it's because they have the buying power to spec the bikes with good parts and sell them for a great price, but when comparing just the frame the Pserise and the SXserise don't really stack up to a quality hardtail such as a Planet X (on-one), or a DMR


(sorry derek i'm just a sucker for supporting the little guys)
