What kind of frame? You can get a Banshee Morphine for $625 US ($829 CAD). That would be my recomendation.

but without having any info, that's the best recomendation i can offer.

I like my women like I like my Scotch. 15 years old and mixed up with coke.

can't you type a sentance without using number's instead of letters?how hard is it to actually type out "one" instead of "1"…sorry,it jsut really bugs me…it just show's how much time you spend on msn or whatever…i find it kinda funny in a pathetic way.,

anyways,with that outta my system,i'd say go for a banshee morphine,letoy or maybe just even a norco ht, and use the left over money to get some new parts(providing his parts spec is crap right now)

Does your buddy prefer to ride steel or aluminum?

How tall is your friend? What kind of riding style?

It's important to get some of these details first. Otherwise everyone is just going to recommend the frame they ride and say it's the one fo sheezy because it's off the heezy.

Good point CC. I love my Stiffee, but it's aluminum, and it's very stiff. If you don't like a stiff frame, you'll hate the Stiffee.
