Hi, I'm looking to get my first road frame (I prefer to buy frame then fit my own components). I was wondering how use would rate the pro lite frames such as this one?

I like it due to initial frame price and would be looking to put some decent components on it.

I'm after a "nose to handlebars" geometry if that's the correct way of putting it.

If its not a good frame could use suggest one around this price range that is?

Cheers
Craig

    I remember some comments about the build quality not being great, swalf on the BB and headtube.
    TBF their cheap as ....just don't expect it to be as good as the RRP they recon its worth !

    I might actually just buy the cheapest giant defy and then swap out the parts :-)
