I have a 59cm Soma rush that I think is too small for me (I'm 6' 2'') if you are interested. I'm selling it for cheap.
59 might be a bit big for me, but thank you for the offer anyways man

Yes, I'm actually looking for a steel frame. I've thought about the leader 722 and would definitely go that direction. The raw looks
hot and my friends leader rides smooth and solid. Only thing really stopping me is that a half of my biking buddies have leaders and I feel like looking for a different frame. Hell why not right?
I forgot about the wabi classic though, and I'm strongly considering that one now. Hopefully one of the frames everybody mentioned will pop up on craigslist in my size
.
I haven't made a concrete decision yet, but I'd better start saving anyways.
