I am soon to try a screw extraction from the u-brake mounts on my Redline Mega-XL Frame. My luck something will go wrong, thus rendering brake mounts useless...thus I'd be buying a new frame.

Now this is speculation, but knowing my luck, a new frame will be needed...

Requirements:
Gyro Tabs (welded or removable)
U-brake mounts (seatstay preferred)
Euro BB
Regular headtube (though integrated is a second choice)

Prefer:
Dual brake cable mounts
Weight...don't want a flyweight frame

Me:
6'0"
220 lbs.

Ride:
Mostly street
Trails
Jumping on/off road/ramps

I was interested in the DK Weapon, until I read what Beerman said about it...

Integrated & Internal.

I have a standard headtube FSA Sealed Pig & want to reuse it.

I don't know why you'd go to all the trouble of replacing a frame just because one of the brake mounts was screwed up... it's obviously not the front brake, so just ride a front brake?
Glad you could get it out though, anyways..
