searched here and google, and they have been inconclusive.

1. where can I buy a Porucho frame? I'm near Harrisburg, Pa. either local or online. Closer the better due to shipping costs.

2. what is the average retail for one of these frames?

3. what size wheels do these accept? Can I fit 20s? or do I have to use 24 / 26?

4. what for headsets and BBs are needed?

If you have any or all the answers, pics and links for examples, any and all info will be greatly appreciated.
Thank You.
 
Sic Nic out at Local Cycle, Long Beach NY is a dealer I think...
 
There was a discussion in Bike Talk, Page 4, Ruff frame prices. Basically find the dealer list on the Ruff Cycles homepage and contact the dealer. Rumor has it that not many frames are in the country at any given moment. These are not mass produced.
 
I bought one, bypassed the dealers here in us, saved about 175 by buying from Germany but you will have to wait a month for shipping.
20's would look goofy due to how wide/stretched the frame is. I'm running 24x4's and I see no reason one could not run 26x4
BB is basic one piece, American, HS is 1\18, nothing special.
There is plenty info on the web in regards to this frame/bike, might have to use Google translate, lots of pics as well.
My bike is 95 percent done, just waiting on tires and I'm adding and old light that I'm converting to led. If you want fat ... wheels, you will most likely have to go to a triple tree.
This is not a cheap bike to build if done right.
