You could use plastic for spacers. Those are plenty strong.

maybe list what you are looking for in terms of material of frame, geometry, price range, etc. This might help in terms of suggestions from the more learned riders on the board

Not Forgotten
by Sheila Packa
I learned to ride
the two wheel bicycle
with my father.
He oiled the chain
clothes-pinned playing cards
to the spokes, put on the basket
to carry my lunch.
By his side, I learned balance
and took on speed
centered behind the wide
handlebars, my hands
on the white grips
my feet pedaling.
One moment he was
holding me up
and the next moment
although I didn't know it
he had let go.
When I wobbled, suddenly
afraid, he yelled keep going—
keep going!
Beneath the trees in the driveway
the distance increasing between us
I eventually rode until he was out of sight.
I counted on him.
That he could hold me was a given
that he could release me was a gift.

Im thinking about slowly building a new bike, I ran across a frame that ive been obsessing about... It's a Leader 725TR and the price isn't bad at all!  Anyone have any info on this frame? Any input would be taken into consideration. Citygrounds carries it in 58cm & 61cm, for those who I've met recently what size do you think is appropriate for me? |

if he's naive enough to suggest a leader,
he's naive enough to not know why he shouldn't.
give 'em some reasons, nathan!
