Replyfirst off, i had an 05 eastern, comparing that to the 05 fit, it seemed very much, like same manafacture, just slightly diff components, eg the easternhad unsealed cranks as opposed to sealed eastern was full cromo as oposed to front half only on the fit, very similair price tags to. mine seemed quite good for me. but thats 05 now the one sdv suggested has sealed cranks and hubs, if i understand correctly that there the wheels of the jane right?, and personally, sealed headsets are nearly a gimic, i'm findng theres minimal advantage there, but it may be sealed for all i know, as i believe that year they threw in spanish and inter(somethin) headtube. Now i just had a squiz at dans the fit pro which is in his range at 370 front end cromo only or 599 for the trails full crmo, easterns shovelhead for 380 also trimo, but has the 25/9 on cassete hub, integrated headtube, and spanish. although i guess neither of those appeal to me, it seems they do to a large percent over certain others. for 410 you could get this years element, full crmo frame and fork, intergrated spanish, 25/9 on cassete hub.
I will agree redlines shitty, but i know someone, who's now riding a redline after breakin his fit, and i know someone who went for a redline to replce his fit frame. oki know thyis may seem like some big anti fit rant, which i guess it's turnin that way, anyway i've got nothing against fit, i guess theres a few reasons, one i'm getting a little annoyed with the constant flow of people saying get a fit and bullshit like that, anyway consider your actual options, sure forumns are good but, do a bit of research yourself, don't just take what everyones talking up at the time, mainly if they don't mention any othe brand with such a large market. anyway just my little rant. | |

| Reply After the Fit rant, and being a two-time Fit owner myself, I'd say, consider, for better/ high-end frames stuff from FBM, S&M, Standard, Fit (duh), Fly, We The People, Macneil, Sunday, and Eastern at least. Many other great companies like Metal, Proper, Solid, etc. also... but trust the ones that have been on the business the longest... and have proven their shit... Ride now, ride later...
