Gents,

Toying with the idea of doing up a DJ/pump/street/skatepark bike to hone those jumping and pumping skills a little better and have my eyes set on a Banshee AMP frame.
Chasing one down (especially in a color of my liking) seems to be the hard part.

So I decided it might be cool to grab a second hand frame, strip and repaint it like I did with my DH bike... if the paintwork isn't already nice and of acceptable color.

Anyone in the know as to where I could grab an AMP frame cheap, or does anyone have one lying around they aren't really using?

Thanks!

Item: Banshee AMP frame - Long
Location: Anywhere
Price range/Willing to Pay: Up to $600
Extra Info: Prefer 2012 onwards for the tapered head tube.

EDIT: Template before someone goes bananas.

Good luck finding one cheap, I've been looking, halfheartedly, for a while. They seem to be a bike that gets held onto. Missing link have two newies in stock http://www.missinglinkbikes.com.au/#!product-page/csi5/51080fb0-f3eb-154a-a4e7-0b1de1d40426

Just a reminder, these things are super low, awesome for stumparses like me, but ain't you 6' eleventy hundred"?

6'3, but have read the 'long' frame is good for anyone 6ft+... Not really a bike I planned to be sitting around and pedalling on.

The second pic looks awesome Tom, despite having brake rotors and no brakes...

I was thinking of building one up single speed with just a rear brake. Like my old BMX in the '90s!

Saw the one on Missing Link earlier, but $900 is a bit much. Was hoping for more around the 500 mark, with a bit of leeway.

Found one in Portugal for ~$600 AUD before shipping in yellow/blue but Australia wasn't in the list of countries they ship to (despite the list being quite extensive).
