£1000 to spend on a race frame

My old frame is beyond repair and i need a new one
Any suggestions?
I've been thinking planet x nanolight
Look 566
I can spend up to £1000 but I dont need to, If the right frame is £300 then I'll spend that, I'm not a slave to labels but I'm keen on plain black... Something with a bit of colour would be good.
I need a 54ish or anything to suit 5'8 1/2 tall.
Does anyone know of any great bargains out there at the moment?
I'd prefer light weight over aerodynamics

If you have £1000 to spend on a race frame then the Cervelo S1 is what you're after."That's it! You people have stood in my way long enough. I'm going to clown college! " - Homer0

The frame is actually for my Girlfriend, I already have the S1, She's not that big of a fan.
Canyon are very nice...
I had a look at them and will now take another, Good suggestion!0 -
gte the chinese carbon could be around sterling 400..? since you said you are not big on names.. i also hear they will do custom paint so you can get her one with a hot pink job as well1996 Cannondale M500 CAAD3 (Hardtail MTB)

Just been to JE james but nothing really stood out, A nice Pantani and that was about it.
Canyon are very cool!0 -
I love my Nano light, and its bloody stiff, I cant flex it..
Plus she might love the Team Guru version!0 -
I keep pushing her towards it, I personally love planet x, I think they're a fantastic company.
I think the guru frame is great.
We where going to pop to their showroom today but decided to go to J E James instead.
Its the bike i'd go for if I was buying today.0 -
I ordered my frame about 2 weeks before the Guru was launched.
Same frame I know, but the Guru is sooo lovely! :evil:0 -
You can just afford a Stork Scenario, superb bits of kit they are.

The Stork is nice but just doesn't float my boat that much, I cant imagine it rides very different to the nanolight. But thanks anyway0
