Well I've gathered a few parts and some money to start my build. I sent my paypal payment to tigman to build my hardtail for me today. I should see it in about three to four weeks. I'm really excited about doing business with Dave out all the custom frame and hardtail builders that do any strecth, drop, and ride height he was the only one (David Bird also but didn't like the look of his hardtails) I talked to that called me back in a timely fashion and returned e-mails back quickly. Now with that said i don't want anybody thinking I'm bashing tc bros or any of those guys who only do certain stretches and ride heights because I didn't call them or talk to them I wanted something different than what they sell.I'll let everyone know how the rest of the process goes. I doubt it will be anything but good feedback.
This is what he's gonna do for me
No stretch
5 inch ride height
axle plates allowing standard chain adjuster use
axle incorporated fender strut mounts
and leaving off battery stay mount but sending it with hardtail just in case in need it.
Its not a difficult build or even a different idea its just most people do only two different style frames and stretches. Other than David Bird and Tigman then other guys just can't seem to communicate with customers.
