Alright, i've been on a Windsor Knight (Alum Frame, Vuelta XRP 'handbuilts', full Ultegra) since last summer, and I'm looking for ways to upgrade it. So far I've determined the only thing i'm looking to do is get rid of that super heavy frame and switching out to either an excellent aluminum or middling carbon frame. Budget for upgrade is about $1000. I've been looking at the planet x sl pro with an Easton EC90 fork

or trying to find a used Cannondale Six frame online.

I'm 6'2" and an unfortunately muscular, non-aero 215 lbs. (yes, yes, i know losing weight is an upgrade, working on it).love to stand on my pedals and sprint and put my bikes through alot of abuse in terms of frame flex. I've read the planet X frames are good but have flex in the front end, and I'm betting it's because of the fork.

any ideas? I throw myself on the mercy of BF.

somehow i made a newb mistake and forgot that BF's main purpose isn't bike advice
