This is my prototype destroy 29er, I was wondering if anybody was interested in the frame only? It was custom built by Destroy just under a year ago. I am posting it on here as I have no idea on how much I can charge for it, all I know is I paid something like 400 quid.
As it is a prototype there is an issue, I run 2.1-2.2 tyres and 175 cranks which is pretty much normal now in the 700c game however this DOES NOT allow barspin clearance on this frame. I cannot afford to experiment with shorter cranks and smaller tyres however it is possible that it could make a large difference! There is also unfortunately a dent in the top tube, Probably about the size of a 5p coin.
Apart from this however I have had no other trouble! Even fully built up this bike is lighter than my fellow riders high spec 26's. The frame is ridiculously responsive in terms of bunny hops and spinny 180's, 360's maybe 540's?? It also has a neutral bb height (0°) giving the bike no problem with peg (and pegless) grinds and also saving your knees. Raise the saddle on this bike and it becomes the gnarliest city commuter/beater (I haven't ridden my track bike for a very long time). If anyone has any questions or can give me a reasonable guide price let me know!
