Road frame - I'm 6'1 - suprise me

Posted on
  • I've been riding my cannondale caadx now for about 2 years and I've toured on it around the UK and around the world and I love it very dearly, but I'd quite like to have something else in my stable and start a project.

    So I'm looking for a road frame... doesn't need to be in amazing condition so long as it works.

    Requirements are:

    • it fits me, I'm 6'1
    • Can take up to 28c tyre
    • Steel or carbon (want to try something different) with a carbon fork.
    • 1 1/8 fork
    • Relatively modern
    • racier geo than my cx bike
    • no horrendously expensive.

    What do people have?

    You'll do well to find a better steel frame at that price

  • Thanks - It's lovely but looks rather heavy and retro for what I'm after. I've got a comfortable distance bike, I'd like this one to be a little nippier.

  • It's alu but I've got a Giant Defy SL frame which is about 2yrs old in size L (57.5) if that would be of interest at all? Carbon fork, headset, BB & clamp included, it fits your requirements inc. size I'd say bar the frame material...

    That condor is lovely but I think too big, and also probably too expensive...

  • Still searching - ideally not after something alu unless it's super interesting. Could be interested in a caad10

  • Carrera podium 61ctt in columbus thron ?

  • Is it 1 1/8 headtube? Not after anything 1 inch or threaded
