Budget FS Small Frame Recommendations?
« on: August 18, 2026, 02:56:03 PM »
Obviously sorry if this isn't allowed, I know most threads are just about a single frame

I used to do really well building alix hardtail frames for my kids prior to political craziness. The good old days are obviously gone, and my 5 foot tall son really wants a full suspension.

It's hard to browse through here and get an idea of prices, with a lot of them being email for a quote. Are there any known quantity decent builds that I should prioritize? Kid loves jumps, but is really skinny and lightweight so easy to build a bike for. Mom isn't thrilled with a $2k bike idea.

I assume ali and the current coupons are the way to go?
