    What do you mean by one frame going on to the other?

    I assume you are asking if you will fit his bike and if he will fit your bike. Answer: best to ride them and find out. Usually you can go a size up or down and be OK. It's all down to personal preference.

    I'm not sure if I am missing something here. What complications are you thinking of? Are you just giving him your bike and taking his? Is that it?

    If you are wondering if the parts will fit: saddle, handlebars, gears, etc, then yes. Never did it, but there should be no (or not many) problems swapping them over.

    There could be issues with the front derailluer. Yours might be braze on and his band on. Check BB also and seat post size. I guess it all depends on which bits n bobs you wanna keep.
