Preferably steel (large) to replace my 45650b - must be boost with 12mm through axle, near as possible to 65 degree HA and a threaded BB - oh, and not a niche expensive jobbie.

Ta!

Is Pace a 'niche, expensive jobbie' at £575? I guess it probably is.

Personally I'd just forget the steel bit and just buy a Sonder Transmitter - 258 quid currently and rides brilliantly. A mate who tests this stuff reckons he'd take one over any of the steel frames currently on the market.

Surely a Cotic Soul is the answer? Loving mine

Soul or Pace as others have said. Had my MK5 Soul for just over a year and it's been my most ridden bike this year, so much fun and easy to work on too which is a bonus. Looks the dogs as well!

Transmitter indeed. Harshness an old problem on high volume tyres.

On one Big Dog? Steel, 65 degree head angle and not too pricey. I think some are in stock and other sizes due in a couple of weeks.

I'll be selling my mint Cotic Solaris Max Longshot (Cosmic Black/Large) very soon (like as soon as I get a spare half hour to advertise it).

I am demoing a Cotic Soul at Glentress on Sunday.
Will report back and let you know what I think.

Choice is more limited for those short of leg like me, I need an XS!

Very difficult to look beyond a Soul.
