Read the next sentence with a clarkson-style accent.......

I was at a car boot sale the other day, and I found this!.....

Fsa power pro cranks and dmr v8's. The cobwebs came free!!

Think the stem might be moonlighting as an anchor!!

Oh,just remembered,the wheels didn't come with the frame,they're off the girlfriends Saracen.

Nice find

Nice find

Thanks,am in two minds what to do though as it is quite small but I suppose a longer stem and offset seat post might help?

Hmmm, I wouldn't recommend this. I'd stay with a <100mm stem and a normal seat post for agility and then add some flavour and lower angels downhill by installing a 130mm+ fork (Marzocchi Z1 CR or something like that).

btw: this buy was a no-brainer, nice find!

My 98 FSR comp was a medium and it always felt like i was going to go over the bars a bit too easy (im 6 foot+)

Changed to a large frame and it felt a lot more sturdy.

******* NICE find though, that is begging for a tidy up.

I used to say the only thing i would swap my 98 GC for was an Elite Max backbone (which i got) that frame you have but the one with the large blowhole through it is the only thing i would get rid of the elite for

If it's too small, cut your losses, tidy it up and sell it.

Will defo give it a going over when I get the free time,seem to have accumulated a garage full of bits and no shelves or bench to put any of it on!
I saw your elite when it was on 't'bay, you,my friend,got a bargain!!!
