Is there any frame only that's long but not slack?

Steel preferably but aluminium maybe.

19 inch frame or there abouts with a 475 or greater reach but designed for 100-120mm forks

STEEL IS REAL will be doing demos soon.

Killing me as I want a steel 29er before the possible brexit price rises.

What’s slack? Sherpa with 100mm forks isn’t too slack (68deg ish) but may not be long enough?

Honzo - can't buy frame only

Sherpa not long enough

Tarn is s good shout but it's forged from solid lead, so heavy when I picked on up

Chameleon - never thought of that.

Btr or a number of custom builders will do custom geometry depending on budget, if nothing existing fits the bill...
