The steel Black Mountain frames are probably worth the extra $300 if you want a really nice long-term bike.

here's a link, I'm referring to the Dawes frame in the middle: BikeIsland.com - Bicycle Parts, Accessories and Clothing at Affordable Prices with Free Shipping

Thanks. I found another on bikeisland

Both appear to have short head tubes and I have no idea how stiff they are or how they ride. Any insight from owners? Both are gravel/cyclo bikes

It's a Fantom Cross but for the life of me I can't find a proper geometry chart with stack/reach and head tube length (see Fantom Cross Frame Geometry)
