Opinions needed on a frame/fork

fair enough. big frames *when they come up tend to go relatively cheap so although you didn't get this one don't feel that you have missed too much - it was pretty sweet though.

You misunderstand I fear Jacqui! It didn't sell on ebay, but I'm in touch with it's owner and might buy it tomorrow. I was wanting opinions from folk on wether it's a sensible choice :)
