I want to buy a bike frame to build a decent road bike but I don't
have a $1000 to spend on a frame as the bicycle stores are quoting me.
Is there a shop on line the someone would know of that sells new or
used 3 or 4 pound frames for an affordable price?

but some like some old Aluminum Peugeot bikes seem to be a little

as need be. Plus, that way you get to know how it rides, and sizing isn't a
crapshoot (providing you find a shop that's known to do a good job sizing
people).--Mike-- Chain Reaction Bicycles
