Hi
I have a 1980’s Pug frame in my garage. It’s in decent Knick and I thought that I would have a crack at building it into a half decent gravel bike using modern parts.
Can anyone think of a reason I can’t do this?
I have read that I have to put square taper bb on it. Anyone know of decent gravel suitable crankset that fits square taper?
Will a standard sealed Shimano bb do the job?
It has the headset on it but thought I would change for a more modern one as better sealed??
As stated, anyone think of any pit falls? I need to meticulously plan beforehand as don’t want to get half way through and realise it has gone t*ts up.
Thanks
