This frame on paper looks to be exactly what I'm after, shame theres no feedback.
I'm thinking of buying it, I started a thread about the same frame a d someone commented that it's an open mold of the Ari Shafer. That frame has good feedback online.
Anyone pulled the trigger on that frame ? Am also interested and would appreciate some insights / opinions on that frame ...
Geometry might be similar to new Ari Shafer v3, however it's 300 gram heavier and tire clearance is much less as the v3 can clear 2.25" tires
