New frame ideas?
Hi all,
I have been looking at frames to get for a build but I wanted some opinions to see what you all suggest. I have been leaning towards the Leader 721TR V2.5 frame but I have also seen this frame on eBay which looks like a rip off of the leader and it comes with a fork, headset, spacers, seat post and seat clamp. So let me know what you all think! Thanks!
Budget wise I was going for 250 range.

I wouldn't get it, they're very heavy; boat anchors.

I've always ridden on steel so that's what I'm used to. I'm not sure how aluminum feels but I assume it's something you have to get used to.
