LOOK695 Posted October 18, 2016 Share , jislaaik, no messing around hey !I started buying parts last year around August. Took longer than anticipated. Rims, for example, I bought this year February and only finished building them about 2 months ago. Would have preferred some white industry hubs, but would have stretched budget too much Edited October 18, 2016 by LOOK695 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fat Boab Posted October 19, 2016 Share Just a straw poll? What brands/outlets of new steel, or Al, CX, or gravel grinder, (I'm grouping them, I know purists will object so mea culpa) framesets do we have available in this country? Ritchey, Surly, Cotic, Mercer, Niner? What else? Or do we have to resign ourselves to picking up a second-hand 'random', or importing ourselves? Edit: to include Al framesets.

LOOK695 Posted October 19, 2016 Share Was hoping to finish the build today, but hit two snags. Need another BB tool to fit the praxis BB. Waiting for a buddy to bring when he comes to town. The other is that the rear is made for a 160mm rotor and I have 160/140. Waiting for my driver to bring one from Piet Retief later this afternoon. Timor I am hoping to finish. Currently fitted with road tyres, will fit others after 947. Don't want to go off-road and fall ar this stage Yusran, Mongoose!, Stretched@Birth and 6 others 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
