Well, each frame I've had has just fallen short in some aspect. Either not quite the right size, not the ride I'm after, not the style.... I've got the best 2 so far with the Condor and the Sirius. Guess that's the way with buying second hand and experimenting with sizing and materials a little. If I was dropping money on a custom steel frame, I'd obviously have it built the exact size and geo I wanted, probably get 2 forks built for it ( a tight track fork and a roomier drilled fork)... Either 853 or a mix of Columbus... It's something that would take alot of thought and a lot of money, not something I'd rush into, or grow bored of and sell on....
That Woodrup is just lovely.
I've got a feeling it will have been around £2000 F&F, which I couldn't afford anyway.
