Which is the more worthy frameset to build?

[SEANSTEPHENS]

What are the frames made of? What make specification of tubes?

The db has 100% crmo mountain series stickers on it, and was made in China. That's all I really know about it. The saracen I have no idea either. I will check and report back

 

[SEANSTEPHENS]

I vote for both

Haha massive help

I vote for the Saracen, but if the DB has sentimental value go for that

Well not really. But I've had it for a long time so I want to build it up anyway. Will probably just get the leftover parts from the saracen I expect

 

[SEANSTEPHENS]

77% percent of votes go to the saracen. looks like we have a victor

The saracen can be the flashy build with that strong colouring you can go 80s gaudy, to parade around town in period-correct attire on a Saturday morning

- the diamondback is a more discreet style, built up with shimano, nice usable stuff, enjoy the ride and lock it outside the pubin the evening.

Saracen for sure

The saracen is tange, but I don't know of which variety.

They both have their charm.
I like the Saracen more, but that DB deserves another crack at life too.

I vote DB, was a tough call but Saracen's do little for me.
