Is this a midlife crisis bike? Or just for fun for the kids? Or because the frame was £10 at Recykabike in Stirling?
Whichever, I now have most of what I need (I think)….
The BB shell threads are goosed about 3/4 of the way in on the drive side, so I plan on using a threadless BB. So I need suggestions of cheap, square taper, singlespeed cranks, and matching retainer of some kind.
I have a mega heavy DH wheel set sat waiting to be used, but this dictates either a 20mm bolth through fork, or adapters for an Atom Lab front hub (seemingly impossible to find).
The rest will be 9sp stuff I have, old Specialized bars and mahooosive DH stem etc etc.
I wonder if it ‘needs’ powder coating – any suggestions in Stirling?
