Like it alot, the weight is bang on too  :daumenhoch:  Although, if you going to offer it with V mounts as an option thus targeting racers, you may want to offer 10mm dropouts too as race bikes are 10mm as a rule  :daumenhoch:

I would liked to have done 10mm dropouts this time around but it wasn't possible.It was one of those things where i was there watching them build the frames and i just said.. the heck with it.. let's just use what we have and get them done.I am happy i could atleast offer v-brake mounts too.I guess atleast people can run 14mm axle converters if they have to.I know eastern makes aluminum converter nuts which are light and come in a boat load of colors.

If i am able to have another batch of frames made i will make sure everything is the way i planned from the beginning.

I have  20" and 26" in the works and it is now up to my manufacturer.Not sure if they have any interest in building more  :'( They are really busy with production of their own frames.
