This is very important information.
I agree, there are tons of options out there. From used frames to abused frames to new frames to new fully built bikes. Cross, Hybrids, Touring, Cargo, Folding, MTBs, Beach Cruisers, etc.
I think the fist thing would be to start narrowing down the parameters:
- General Class (Cross, Hybrid, Touring, Cargo, Commuter, etc).
- Tire Clearance? Fenders? Racks (Font/Rear)?
- Horizontal Top Tube vs Sloping Top Tube vs Funny Bike.
- Lugs vs Lugless
- Frame vs Bike
- Price Range?
- Fork Material?
- Head Tube/Stem?
Once you start figuring out some of the parameters, people can give you much more tailored suggestions.
