Thanks so much for all the input everyone!! I believe the one for me is the kilo wt! I am planning to build it myself but am having the hardest time finding the frame(size 52-54(I'm 5'8)) think what I am going to do is buy all the parts I need and then just wait till the frames are available at bike island in the size I need! As for the type of bike my friend has, I remember him saying that they no longer make it, and I know it had 26in tires on it. Will clarify the exact model tomorrow! Thanks again to everyone for the help and suggestions!
