There's a lot of people who say "steel is real", and we're not really in a position to argue. As much as we love and adore our carbon fiber super bikes, we fall in love with steel again every time we ride it. And that's especially true on the trail. The Nashbar Chromoly mountain bike frame is the best blank canvas on which to build your dream mountain bike. Build it out from your big bin of spare parts of shop around for a new groupset. It's a trail-taming beast with unbelievable handling and ride feel. Strong, durable chromoly steel frames have excellent ride characteristics 1-1/8" headtube accepts standard headsets Threaded 68mm English bottom bracket makes finding the right crankset easy Disc brake ready Cantilever brake studs allow you to mound cantilevers, linear pull or mini-v brakes 26" wheel size

Would have done better with the aluminum frame.
Be aware that it does not have a full array of brake and shifter cable hangers.
