I really fancy building a light as I can cheapish bike, Ive got my steel retro
classic so now I fancy a fly weight. My starting point is going to be a Coyote
frame light and i like the cnc looking rear ends (im not a label chaser!).I
also like the look of carbon parts, seen loads on ebay seats, seatpost, bars stem, forks will be Pace RC31 maybe or those
exotic ones might even do carbon cranks?
Are these cheapish carbon parts decent? (most are hong kong specials)
and would they stand my 106kg bulk? there only going to get rough road/canal path rideing and the odd bit of off road.
All input and opinions are really welcome as Im new to any bike older than 93
Thanks
