possible to get a new frame for my raleigh?
i want to customize the looks of my bike, i have a raleigh m60, but i want one of them cannondale frames and forks, is it possible to mix and match bike parts so you can customize it? and do they sell only the frames?

Some parts are compatible. Seat posts might be a different size which as well as a new seatpost might mean a new front derailleur. You'll probably be okay with wheels, brakes, shifters and rear mech. I don't know about your stem and bars or bottom-bracket and chainset.
Most companies sell frames separately, but you might well be better off buying a whole new bike.
