Well, if that's an 1 1/8" Dean Ti stem you're talking about:, you better sell that to me. I think you'd be better off with a red ano one :lol: ...

Looking forward to seeing this progress.

Oops. Yeah, that's the stem. :)

I just got it back from the LBS. They assembled the front end.

Update. Put the wheels on from my 92 Rascal. I want to build them up with Nuke Proof Ti hubs and black hoops. These will work for now. I spent most of my time stripping the Rascal.

The more I look at the Kona Project 2s, the more I am getting use to them. They are the 440(from axel to crown) model, so there is a lot of clearance between the tire and the crown.

Since I am so tall, they might work really well for me. :)
