Do you have any of the frames now? They're both going to be sweet, I personally would use the 400 because I like the plastics better. But many say the geometry of the 250r is much better.

the 250r dose have the best geometry but the 400 is also a very nice frame to use. i would also use a crf450 engine insted of a 426.
