Its been awhile since I’ve been around here but I figured you’d be the group to go to. A guy I work with is looking to build his own bike. It seems fetish is all but dead, so any other ideas on decent, new frames, at a good price? I saw Leader Bike out there but looking for a few more ideas.

Thanks
Eric

Tried sending fetish an email and it was returned to me anyone have any ideas? I saw they still have the 2005 Dirigente on sale and was just looking to see if they wanted to dump one even cheaper. You know us poor college kids.

Well I have the option to get a job at a bike shop and get bikes and parts at cost this summer. Only problem is I’ll be working 40 hours during the week and then working saturday and sunday also. Any idea what bike shop cost is usually on say the $2000 trek madone frame?

Well Tri training started yesterday. I really think I am going to drown on the swim part. Right now I am riding the SAC for training but am considering building up a nice Tri bike this summer. Anyone know what frame do they have the best deals on right now? Anyone reconmend some good clip on aero bars for now and a decent disk wheel that takes campi?

I looked at the fetish site and they do not list many specs on the BMX frames. I have to admit i know nothing about BMX but I am looking at them as Christmas presents for my little cousins. What heights would the 20 or 24 inch frame be good for? Also what component specs do they require?
Thanks in advance Eric
