I like to tinker, and want to customise a bit. I’m trying to find a good middle ground between it looking the nuts, and not desirable to steal… pretty tough, but after cleaning up a bit there’s less that ‘needs’ doing. New shifters being the only main thing, but will sort a new cassette, chain...

I did wonder if this was the case, but was unsure. I’m only used to building road bikes with new groupos 🤷🏽‍♂️ Thanks for your help.

Thanks for this. We’re all good on the knee pain, she’s had a professional fit on her roadie, so all measurements are being based on that, but more relaxed up front.

Ok cool. So those teeth bent in are deliberate? In that case, I just need a shorter crank arm. She’s a 170, and gets knee pain. it’s 175. Thanks you :)

Ideally need something with forks. Appreciate sharing though

Ideally need something with forks and stuff ones. Thanks though.

Yes! Very much so, would love to see some pics and get an idea of cost.

Hey All, I’m currently looking to get a frame with forks for my partner who is 5’ 8” I’m open to either a frame, or complete bikes. It’s going to be a run around so nothing too high end or immaculate. Ideally looking for stiff forks. Something like a specialized stump jumper or cannondale...
