I recently found out my Access XCL frame is bent! Performance Bike says they will refund my money 100% so I am thinking of going from a beginner frame to a lot nicer one. I was actually pretty impressed with the frame but if they are going to give me my money back I would rather put it into something nice. Any ideas on SS 26r frames with a budget of 300-400 bucks?? Thanks
 
Ah no big deal I have a nice brand new Rennen tensioner. My biggest concern is keeping my components because they weren't used all that much

Here are my measurements

Bottom Bracket 68mm
Headset 1 1/8"
Seatpost 31.6

Check out an on-one inbred. Never rode one but people usually have good things to say about them. I think there might be one or two owners on the boards too
 
I'm 6' and ride a 20'' Inbred. You might have some issue with a 18' frame... Smaller frames don't have enough clearance for mechanical brakes (bb5/bb7) but any hydro will fit.

Well that sucks I just bought brand new BB7s. "I wish I was a little bit taller"

Ala Carte

A veritable legend of the mountain bike world, the Ala Carte has proven itself for over 20 years.

The classic 26-inch wheeled steel frame is now capable of geared or singlespeed use, thanks to the new Alternator dropout design. The Alternator makes proper chain tensioning a snap while allowing hassle free quick-release wheel removal.

Our new Kung Fu tubing increases frame strength to new levels while maintaining low weight and ride quality.

The Ala Carte is nimble, but not twitchy, and both climbs and descends with aplomb. Use it for backcountry exploration and all-day trail rides, or for a few hours of singletrack success with your local crew.

Ala Carte. Best thing on the menu.
