Just pushed the button on a Covert frame which I'm going to build up over the festive period so looking for some inspiration on what to built it up with. Being Xmas soon I'm not that flush so will be on the look out for some good condition secondhand bits namely forks and wheel set first off
So get pic whoring and tell me your spec
For forks look at x fusion slants or vengeance can be bough new for sh rockshit, fox & marzocchi prices.
Just bought a Covert 27.5 frame to build, Going Pikes, Double XT, XT Brakes, Stans Flow Rims and Hope hubs...

Mines a 26", not fussed for all this new fangled wheel size business 🙂

On the lookout for some Float 34's 160mm or similar

There was a similar post a few weeks or months ago, but any excuse to post up a pick of my steed. Here's mine in wet weather configuration. Its a 29er and utterly brilliant… Got some Pikes on the wish list when funds allow….

I've got a covert frame that I will be selling when I get round to it.
Raw finish, large 2011, if you are interested.
Great condition as was taped from new and has not been used much, as it was a bit big for me.
Mail me if you want some more details.
Cheers
Ben
I've got the frame sorted thanks, it's just everything else I need!
Ok, enjoy building the bike up.
What frame sizes are you guys running against your height?

LARGE - 5'11
5'9" with 30" inside leg on a medium. Towards the top end of the medium range but perfect for me.
Large, 6 foot.

Heres mine - think I'm 5' 8" and on a Medium thinking of getting a small at some point
Some lovely looking bikes here.
Well I've gone for small being 5'8" with 30" inside leg, was in between on the size chart but prefer bike on the smaller side so fingers crossed it should be ok!
