what do you like in terms of feel/features from a frame?

how much do you have to spend?

are there any other aesthetic features you want from the frame?

there are lots of stickerless track frames, all the above are fine. plus kilo tt strippers on bikeisland, which i've loved since 2007. it all depends what you want out of it. if you want a bar bike a scrambler is a good option, if you want something cheap, it doesn't really matter and that mission valencia is probably great for you, or the pake. if you want something stiff you can probably do better with a kilo or spending a little more.

you say 'you were just going to get a felt' and that makes me think you may not know what you're getting yourself into in assembling a bike from a frameset. you'll spend somewhere between 300 and 500 dollars just getting it rolling depending on what you have available to you.

unless you were talking about the dispatch frameset... in which case, i have to say all of these bikes are very very distinct from that type of felt. they're generally identical to a brougham.

if i were you i'd get a tk3 and forget the frameset. that bike is amazing for the money. but you have to give us more information otherwise you may as well just read the stickies. in fact, you should probably have done that before making this thread anyway. youz trollin.

otherwise i'm just going to tell you to get an EAI Godzilla.
