Title: Quamen Cyphr Frame
Post by: 89schwinnsting on July 02, 2021, 09:29:11 PM: Came across a cyphr frame for sale locally. Seller is asking $200? Didn't this particular model have a penchant for cracking near the bottom bracket? Frame has no cracks or damage. Is it worth the risk?

$200 is low risk. If you like the frame go for it.
