Dude has a 30-06 in Knoxville. If i remember correctly it's chromoly & will take a big fork no problem.Standard 135mm rear spacing.

Snipes "Elemental"sucks,don't get that bike.It has wierd geometry !

I thought all the Snipes' were aluminum...

Good deal provided it's not broken or anything...just check it for cracks, etc..

I think that Snipes originally had a line-up consisting of a 30-06 in aluminum. A season later, I think they started making it (having it made) out of chromo and then the aluminum Elemental came. I not even close to sure about any of this. It was all around what, 1999-2001?

If it isn't damaged,then yep it's a good deal.

But NO if it's all dented up or cracked.Any frame can possibly crack,so look at it good.
