It's a place to start but wouldn't be much good without the accompanying bodywork. Cool stuff though.

It doesn't really describe the actual improvements or advantages of the frame there. Presumably a stiffer steering head area...though the rear section looks a bit spindly. Does it give great all-round rigidity? More ground clearance? Is there an inherent problem in the stock K frame or would we be paying 2 grand for a pseudo " Monstro" frame? Looks cool though...:-)

I have built a few frames and that will crack along the tube at the arrows between where the other tubes are welded to it. Should have been a bent tube where the red line is.
