Currently have a steel goku ss which weighs a ton and I’m looking to replace it with something lighter.
My commute is either 2 miles to the station or 7 miles into work with 500ft of climbing.
I don’t need mounts for bottles or pannier racks but would need a rear brake
Don’t want to spend a fortune as some days it’ll be locked at the secure station parking hut thing so I’ve been looking at track style aluminium frames and have come up with the following
Dolan pre Cursa (drilled to take a rear brake) can get a used frame for £120 and I’ve got some bits to make up the rest
Dolan FXE obviously is more meant for what I’m after but would be around £300
Specialized langster think around £200 but not sure
Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.
Tips:
Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----
To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word
To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word
Embed images by entering:  That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.
* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks
1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:
```
Your code goes here
```
Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
If you upload more than 5 files we will display all attachments as thumbnails.
Looking for some advice if possible...
