Custom dart + enve is cheaper than the base price of any rourke or robers frames

how much are you paying for the Dart?

how much are you paying for the Dart?

Not finalized yet but it'll be under 450

steve goff springs to mind

I agree, but it's always nicer and easier to have a locals whom you can talk to.

steve goff springs to mind

I was going to go for a 853 steve goff as I loved my old goff but ive heard the turn around time is 6 months?!

even Oak bikes dont take that long.....

Why is that bad? sound about right for a custom frame.

Mine does, deposit paid in May, frame finished a couple weeks ago.

Zona dart comes in around the same price as steve goff in zona? And tf is a fair while quicker as XH said

What sort of price range would an Oak tarck F&F in decent tubing be in? Mix of lugs and brazed...

Excuse the shitty phone picture, finally got a pair for a normal price and I really like them :)!

TM, around £900 F&F with 853, but that was early 2012.

450 + 350 = 800 no? Rourke starts at £725 and you can have 853 oversize for £825.

Not trolling, just sayin'

hmm, how much would you expect to wait xander? 6 months for a custom really doesnt seem that long

nothing wrong with dart/chromoly in my opinion, I also don't get the why put enve fork on dart debate .. if it's tubing then how do you justify this:

I think that was more about frame being appropiate enough for forks.
I dont think that for the record

How is it any different to people pimping their pompino?

Dart and Enve fork sound awesome, however odd the choice is.

ed, I am not defending this opinion, just paraphrasing it.

I'm thinking more exotic than that... so looking at a grand at least.

what is a normal price these days? I got mine (1'') for 30€ a year or two ago and lost a 1 1/8'' pair that sold for 76€ on the 'bay recently cause the seller didn't open the auction to international bidders despite saying me would... i thought those would easily go for over 100€

My custom polo frame took 7 weeks from first contact to collection. Design and spec was confirmed after 4 week.

Stop being sentimental about big name frame builders.

The question is, Columbus Zona or Dedacciai Zero Uno?

We'll see how much the parts i definitely want comes to, frames a few months away I might end up with standard carbon forks but meh, i think the dart will be pretty boss with enve

Emails Ryan? he got a bit on his plate but I'm sure he can give you some estimation for your new touring bike Brother Tom.

Whichever the framebuilder recommend to you.

What exactly is tour reason behind enve fork? If looks then there are some options out there, columbus mud is one the good ones.
