i cracked my '02 scab frame and i need a new bike. i can't decide between a cortina triton ds (locally made), nemesis project secret agent, blk market mob, soul cycles roscoe, or something else. i'm looking for a steel (chromoly) frame, fairly steep HA, disc brake compatable, and under $600 usd. i'll be running ss and a 3" travel fork. any suggestions...

triton ds is $300, secret agent is $600, mob is $575, roscoe is around $200. i would get the triton ds or the secret agent with no paint so i could get it heat treated first...

I have a Triton DS that I would sell for $150. It comes pre-loved. Heck I'd still be riding it if I hadn't gotten a pseudo pro-deal on a new frame. It's a nice ride.

pm sent. i'm now deciding between your frame or a dk general lee 24 (bmx, i know). i want the smaller bike (the dk), but i really like cortinas...
