Simon,

I'd spend the money on a spa weekend for the missus, then get to the track for 2 days of practice - that'll make you quicker than a new frame.

GlynnyBoy has that Haro Group One (with the bend in the TT) f+f  that he might want to get rid of.

Its the same frameset that Oggy rode at Crewe.  He seemed to do okay on it!!!  :shocked:

Its a 20.5" TT, stick an XL stem on it and it will be close to a NS TT length.

What length is your Elf TT?

Early 90's Haro Group One Race tech...cheap and good.

Does it for me anyway, and as said people seem to do well on them.

How about a Bully Piston Race Stretch?  Mine is OS legal and 22" TT.
