Your laeger is 250r geometry however it uses the cr500 rear end which I'm sure you understand is from the early 90's era cr500 dirtbike. Better suspension through the big hits, not quite as good through the woops as a dc-4 no link (LSR) but overall a better track bike in my opinion. Using the t-pin (very little caster in front) makes for a twitchy, quick turning bike.. again great for the mx track. Not quite as stable through the straights as a walsh (adj. caster) but works well with a good stabilizer. Your frame is a wide frame. (not as much body roll in the corners, but a little more bump steer) I like both the narrow and wide frame just need a good shock setup. Frame wise a walsh will be the most durable, laeger next (slightly lighter though) lsr's aren't bad... but well they don't compare, although I had really grown to like my lsr yzf by the time I tore it down. However I had a couple years into getting it dialed perfect.
