I'm looking at getting a new frame. I ride easy xc, no big drops and bombing down rock gardens. I've cut down my selection to these 2 frames. I'd really want to get a light frame with a good value. I'n my part of the world, the XTC frame is about $ 300 while the m5 frame is triple the price at $900. Are these fair prices? If I'm looking at the cost-performance ratio, would the M5 give me a LOT better ride than the XTC? Hoping for your inputs....

Hey maxbuwaya! How did you set-up your bike? I currently have a Schwinn Moab 2, which is pretty light.. but i'm looking to upgrade my frame. Baka you're selling an old frame? 🙂 Where do you ride? We're usually in Montalban weekends, sama kayo!

Does anyone else have experiences with these 2 bikes?

I bought it at Cristis at Cartimar, Its basically a straight factory giant bicycle, I really dont wanna overshoot my budget at that time, we wr in antipolo just last thursday, its actually my first trailing experience, so i really am a newbie, so stamina is not that good for now🙂 But if its ok with you guys why not? hehehehe
