so im in search of a new frame to build up over the winter but i have some specific things that i want in the frame and couldnt find many options so i was wondering if you all know of any others i may be missing

wheel size: 26in
HA: somewhere from 70 to 72 degrees
CS: 15.5 inches or shorter is a must
disc brake mount

i will be runing a short travel 80mm fork also and single speed

so far the only frame i could find are the NS bikes suburban and majesty. i guess right now i am leaning towards the majesty but if i could avoid buying a frame with a spanish BB (i would have to buy new bmx cranks) that would be a plus

aluminum or steel but must have horizontal dropouts

so you guys know of any other frames besides the NS stuff???

[WhoRyder]

yeah I'd go with either the Pinscher or SuperCo looks like it would be right for you....

The price for the Pinscher is RIGHT!

here are a few:

With Rigid

With Suspension Fork:

The SuperCo Is NICE though.....

Atomlab Trailking is close... a bit slack though at 69 degrees with a 4" fork. But it does have very short chainstays.

 

[greenblinker104]

hmmmm - ill check out the dob. for some reason i thought that was more slack

and if i remember correctly, i think the black betty has a 69 degree HA. i read that in the 09 launch eastern catalog

 

[Bikael Molton]

i don't think you will find a 72 HA that is compatible with suspension forks and 26" wheels.

the eastern isn't slack. double check the angle with a 2-3" travel fork...

 

[greenblinker104]

i ride more of a street trials type thing - my last frame was a simtra BnB which has a 72 degree HA (according to the site of course) and its designed around an 80ish mm sus fork

so im used to riding a really steep bike. ive ridden a friends sinister dna with a 69 degree HA and i just didnt like it - to slack for me

 

[greenblinker104]

ehh i think my money is still on the ns majesty: its the lightest frame out there at 4.9 lbs, 70.5 HA, 15in stays, intergrated headset, spanish bb...

 

[Bikael Molton]

the majesty looks awesome. let us know when you get a hold of one.

hmmmm - ill check out the dob. for some reason i thought that was more slack

and if i remember correctly, i think the black betty has a 69 degree HA. i read that in the 09 launch eastern catalog

all of the EB 26" frames have the same geo and I was told by a guy at Eastern that the HA are 71. I ride a Nighttrain frame and I would say it's in that neighborhood and my fork is dropped 10mm from what they base their geo on.

 

[greenblinker104]

yeah i checked the eastern and the eastern 26 pages and neither list the HA for the BB or the night train frames for some reason so ill take your word on that

anyways, here is a very nice BB built up on pink bike. very shinny

The Nemesis Project Deathmobile 135 is also very close to the #'s your looking for .
Here's a few pic's of our French Pro rider David Desnoes personal bike . He's been ripping on this frame for almost a full year now without any trouble .

GEO:
HA70
SA71.0
TT:22.75
chainstay:15.35
Seattube :11.50

Sorry for the low res on this , I think it's a scan of cycle VTT a Frech printed bike news paper
