"Sleeper" bike frames
I've been riding my Black Mountain Cycles Monstercross for 2 years now. Love the bike. So versatile.
To me, BMC epitomizes the category of bike frame makers/producers/designers that are somewhat niche, tailored to the enthusiast and relatively low volume.
I've recently looked into purchasing and building up another frame and through here-and-there research, frames like the Rodeo Labs Flaanimal, Endpoint Hunter-Gatherer, Rawland Ravn and Ulv, and Singular.
I'm liking these low-volume, off-the-shelf frames for the discerning bike enthusiast and a not so crazy price.
It would be great to start a discussion about these frames and give spotlight to those producers/manufacturers that deserve it.
I also think it would be great to get a list going of all of the best of the lot.
