Flybikes Mosca frame.
I'm in the market for a new frame (Again
) And was wondering about the Mosca Two, any good? I'm gonna head down to the shop on monday and see if I can ride a bike with a 20.2 toptube without much trouble (I ride a 20.1 now).
Or does anybody know of other frames in 20-20.1 with short chainstays?

I like the Mosca 2... two of my friends have them... you're in the same boat as me though. I want a frame around 20.2 with short chainstays as well and there aren't many of them. I don't want to copy my two other friends.

As far as I know, there is only three fly's in this town, a 3 Amigo's with a crappy build, a decent Pantera and a decent Mosca.
Thats one of the few things I like about my Heaton, short stays.

The Autopilot. But take 10 seconds to look on bikeguide or bmxboard and look to see how many people are cracking their Autopilots...
At least 5 people around here have Fly's and two or three of them have Mosca's and like them alot. So i guess they are good frames.

Eh. I'm not fond of the frame. I want a smaller backend.
Get that weird looking KP Fly frame if you want a short backend...

I have my wheel damn near slammed with 13.5's, and I dont loop out or use my brakes.
