Awaiting delivery of my first bare road frame.
I've built plenty of mountain bikes but never a road - are there any little tips/pitfalls in build technique/component choice that I should know about?
Initial component choice will probably be based on buying a junk donor bike to salvage parts just to get it running.
The frame has shifter mounts on the downtube and a braze on front derailleur mount, I'm presuming anyw shifters/braze on mech should be a standard fit?
