frame choice ? help
Hi guys,
What frames out there in the budget of £250-300 are good ?
I am 6ft3 tall so need frame size between 59/60cm.
Ideally want the lightest frame possible for given budget. I have looked at the Aventon Mataro.
Is there any other good quality frames out there. Ive always had a steel bike frame.
Im in the Uk, if someone could also recommend some distributors or companies that internationally ship because choice here in uk is limited.
thanks in advance

I'm very fond of Leaders. I love my 721. Although there are criticisms about their geometry being off, its still an amazing frame nonetheless.
I haven't heard much about Aventon, but it seems just okay- if you want it go for it i guess. Ive also been eyeing the 17teeth Evo, although i know nothing about it. You could look on craigslist for some better frames used probably as well. You can probably snag a fuji 09 track pro, or a EAI bareknuckle(steel, but great frame). Precursa's, etc, and the list goes on
