I am looking for a cheap bike frame, was considering going to a swap meet to see. Last night looking thru Nasbar, I came across this frame(Nashbar has 50% off frame only sale), looks like my frame quest is over, so I ordered it, it should be here at end of the week or begining of next.

Now this is frame only and nothing else, not bad for $24, probably pay more for a stolen bike frame at the swap meet. With the large parts inventory that I have, I have most of parts, just minor items. Will probably need a back wheel, since I am building a front wheel 48v 1000w bike, a comfy seat, headset and a suspension seat post, everything else I should have.

Looks like you'll need a fork too, unless you luck out and it comes with one. Nice long headset tube on it, so likely all your bike junkpile forks will be cut too short.

But that is a screaming deal. You must have got the last one, it says out of stock now.
 
I like the fact that it has a large "v" area for carrying batteries. And it looks like it might be using round tubing that makes it easier to make form fit bracketing mounts for a non-hob motor or battery packs. Would be great for mounting one of those Nuvinci test kits to with a non-hubber. But it does seem to be sold out now..Boo
