Djs
The powdercoat didnt turn out as expected on these but the little mottled spots on the stays actually look somewhat intentional, so Ill sell them as is. I got a better deal on them so ill let them go for a little cheaper as well.
Heres the specs on these
STOUT SMOKE- trans black 26: GEO w/ 100 mm Marzo fork 68.5 HA 12.8 BB height 15.5 c/stays 22.5 and 22" actual TT lengths
The 22.5" one is MID BB with a HT gusset. The other has Euro BB 22"TT

"Design is in the details"... On this 20" BMX frame, the details are:
a relatively wide distance between top and downtube making a stronger headtube junction
Shortened dropouts that reduce the risk of smacking a ledge on the bottom lip of the dropout... and saving weight
Clearance for the biggest tire. Braces that are as close as they can be to the tire making a stiffer rear end
Its lighter than my longer frames, and for a 21.15"TT at 5lbs it not that heavy at all considering its mostly straight gauge. I'd say the OX plat/supertherm butted version would be ~4.6lbs
