Current status: a pile of old 26" stuff, and the longest frame I have is an old Inbred with a ~615mm top tube (I'm still using 10-12cm stems; yes, I am that stuck in the past). I'm tyre-kicking for something in 660mm territory, and cheap as chips (secondhand is fine). Yes, I know top tube isn't everything, but it'll do as a start.

The Dartmoor Primal 27.5 looks like an option: 656mm top tube in the largest size, and under £200. I'm guessing 26" wheels and fork will be fine in it (?) leaving me the option to upgrade later. The graphics are awful but beggars can't be choosers.

Anything else out there I should look at? Anyone selling? 🙂

Let me make sure i've correctly interpreted your criteria :

Secondhand? - Check
Long?- Check
Low ?- Check
Awful graphics? - Check
Bez? - Check

In which case.....
