  1. Is this a good frame?

    http://www.chucksbikes.com/store/fr053.htm

    I want to build my own without breaking my bank account. What do you think/ suggest?

  2. i dont like the idea of the wrong decals and the $500+ price tag if labelled
    something else without physically seeing the bike its hard to tell, 7005 is
    good material.

    The only thing I see wrong with it is fit/handling: you don't know the top tube length
    or what the head angle will be with your fork. The latter is fairly standard these days,
    although I once got an unpleasant surprise when it didn't match what I was told.
    The former is really key to the bike fitting you.

    It would be Ok if it didn't smell of spam.

    The guy's been posting elsewhere since 2002 and all the sudden he's a
    shill for Chuck's? Doubt it.

    Really, since 2002 you say? I might just get me myself one of those frames then.
