here is my totally awesome Oak polo frame. Ryan designed it around what I felt I liked on a polo bike (similar to the 14 bike co V1 polo bikes) and what he'd seen in my game. It has a lower BB than some to give it more stability and a light but not too light front end. He built it with 631 tubing that he had heat treated by Reynolds to order to make it specifically sturdy for polo. The seat stays are seriously beefy to ensure the damage that a polo bike gets on court. This badboy is strong...
This thing is so responsive and literally turns on a dime, is insanely stable which gives me the ability to come out well out of sittuations on the polo court that would have seen me falling off on my last bikes, rides like it was built for me and is an utter joy to ride. Still need to play around with the stem and seat height abit (hence the surfeit of spacers on the steerer).
Best money I have ever spent on a bike, EVER
