I'm 6'5 and 108kgs so not after a teeny little carbon wafer. This bike has the below specs on it and ideally I'd look to change most of it over for now, I've never owned a bike that fits me so well and I'd like to keep it as close as possible.

I'm not quite sure what you are asking here. Do you already have a bike, and want to buy another bike with this spec, to swap all these components onto your old frame, or are you asking about the quality of the components as listed?
All these components would fit onto a hybrid frame.

Presumably he has the bike and the frame is the wrong size, so he wants a frame set that’ll fit him and he’ll transfer the parts across? Or not?

He says "I've never owned a bike that fits me so well"

I can't see what he's trying to achieve. Presumably his terminology is a bit awry?

Apologies, been busy working.... This bike is perfect, except for the fact the frame has fractured at the very end of the rear dropout and it can't be welded. The mods moved this one post from the original thread, hence the lack of context.

So I'm trying to find a bike or a frame with the same geometry and I can swap components to it. My LBS suggested contacting Ridgeback to see if they have any old stock frames still. I've done so and they're currently "looking into it". Fingers crossed!!
