koukie Posted July 18, 2011 Share Okay I see one, the brake caliper on the front does not look like its fits. The caliper is to far out? It look likes like the disc is to small? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thumper Posted July 18, 2011 Share No valves and no rear derailleur cable.Could be right about the valves but I can see 2 cables running to the rear so the derailleur should be cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
