My bad, didn’t notice it was a 59. That’s way too big for me.

I guess that project is not being made in the end. It’s way too much money and it seems there is practically no frame being made that really suits what I need to make a bike like the pic I posted originally...

Maybe one day...

Marino...

OP can't be bothered, let's just close this thread...

This has been such an anti-climax.

I tried to sell him a 26' fixed frame that took bmx cranks....

OP: I want this kind of a bike
LFGSS: good idea, here are four interesting ways to get it
OP: all of these are either too expensive or too much effort, I give up

Marino doesn’t answer my e-mails! Sorry to have disappoint you...

What frame is that? That pfix? It has a way too high B.B., has no disc mounts, and I doubt it can be ridden as a fixed MTB bike... except with a sky high seat...

I am really sorry to have made you lost such precious time reading this thread. Honestly all I wanted was help to make that bike somehow come to life but it seems I am having a very hard time finding what I want...

What stands in that picture is clearly what I need, but with some disc tabs if I ever get bored of it. But people propose some bikes that are not at all what I need, some sloping frames, some without horizontal dropouts, some that are way too high for my size. I am sure a Marino would have been perfect except the tubes would have been way too thin when compared with the frame in the picture. That is all I wanted but apparently it seems it is much more difficult to find than what I thought...

I have sent a last email to Marino so we will see if something happens

There’s a few of 26 inbreds on Fb marketplace

I don’t have FB though. Thanks for your input but the inbred is a sloping frame and it’s not what I want in the end.

There's always the Mielec option... You could get a custom aluminium frame for less than 350€ I guess?
When we did the group buy for the Mash clones, it was 145€, and i heard the rates have gone up since, but i'm sure it won't be that expensive...
I'm sure they'll be able to build it from a given RattleCAD or BikeCAD design.

Yes I have thought of Mielec also but I know they are not cheap. Also steel may feel better for off-road riding

small 1x1 for you https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Surly-1-x-1-single-speed-hybrid-bike-frame-and-forks/173284936001?hash=item2858964941:g:tosAAOSwdJVa3kfr

Thank you but that is 16” and sloping so it’s too small.

Define cheap: What is your budget exactly for a frame?
I fear your maybe looking for a unicorm: a cheap, sensible configuration that will suit every one of your needs without any compromising.
I doubt you'll get a frame cheaper than £250-200 given your specs...

How about a Genesis day one disc with flat bars and MTB tires?

That has no horizontal dropouts

That is what I am aiming at: 250-300 max

Where can I find one though?

How about omnium cxc? Bit over 300 euros but sell the parts you dont need. 37mm tires with mudguards so maybe 2" with 650b?
