Need opinions on a GT FS frame.
 

I know someone who has a brand new never built up 2006 GT i-drive 42.0 frame for sale. Asking price is $200. Will also come with a few extra parts. I have been riding nothing but hardtails for the past couple of years. Is this frame worth buying and building? Or should I look for something else. I know the GT hardtails are bomb prove, but i have never really heard any thing about there FS frames. Here is the the bike built from the factory.

Let me know what you all think.

Dude for 200 bucks I think it would be pretty good. I am not completely sold on the I-drive system because it is a semi URT design but after watching a couple of demos on youtube I have to say I am pretty intrigued. Esp for 200 bucks.

Main reason I am asking is because it is a warranty replacement frame from GT. He cracked the one prior. So i wanted to know if that was a common problem. I am a big fan of Gary Fisher hardtails. But I would never buy a Gary Fisher FS bike. I have known several people who have had them and they had been nothing but problems, and that does not include what I have read.

Ah, gotcha. I am no help as i have no experience with GTs .

No problem. But seeing as no one else on here has chimed in at all, makes me think the frame is not worth my time. In my neck of the woods, I don't see very many GT's around at all. But sometimes that is due to lack of dealerships in area's

Personally I wouldn't touch something from a company with a history of sale after sale and different marketing methods and support like GT. Gary Fisher ain't so hot either. There's better.
