Are you still riding either of those frames?

Well the solid frame was about the time when wedge posts started to come out basically I really liked the look and the ease of this design so I had one made up just for that.
The Embassy frame has both SS and CS mounts because I do like to have the option of having both, I get the urge to either go chain stay mounts for a while and seat stay for a while basically that's all it is really I just wanted the option to use either one when I felt like it and as for the seat post that's usually the amount of seat post I have out of the frame as on the Solid I usually had my seat slammed also I still like the function of a wedge and the aesthetics of it, if I ever decided to use a normal seat mast with a clamp for what ever reason I have plenty of room to modify the frame to do so.
The tensioners on the Solid were a bit of a problem as I had to remove them to actually use my hub, the would rub on the tensioners, luckily it wasn't hard to do, if they were a little smaller in shape they would have worked perfectly, was a bit of a bummer but not a huge inconvenience.
Cheers

No the Solid I sold, I still kick myself for it and the Embassy I still have which is resting in my spare room.
