Well I decided to get started on my very first build. My intent is to get this bike registered in FL and learn about it in the process too.
My wheels are being built as of right now.
Rear;
Alex dx32 rims 26" 36h
Rear SRAM i-3 3 speed with disc brake
Butted 13g/14g spokes
Maxxis hookworms
Front;
Alex dx32 rims 26" 36h
Surly ultra new disc hub
Butted 13g/14g spokes
Maxxis hookworms
Brakes;
All bb7 203mm (not sure if it fits in the rear).
My frame came with 2 rear disc brake adapters similar to the ones on gasbikes.net
Frame gt2-a;
Still trying to figure out the headset type and bottom bracket adapters. I'll end up with a shift kit after all.
Your feedback is appreciated! I'll keep updating this thread with pics as I go.
Frame was powder coated in charcoal gray
This is not the rear wheel but kinda shows what I'm going for.
