Good evening STW
I am currently building a bike for my wife ( her first proper mtb), I started with a small 2003 Gary Fisher Tassajara rim brake only complete bike, i have sourced some 15mm QR120mm recon golds, new bars, stem, female specific saddle, xt disc for the front and HS33 for the rear.
I am coming unstuck when it comes to the wheels, i am not in the position to be buying brand new parts ( incase she doesnt take to riding). I have came accross plenty of mavic crossrides on flebay, but most fronts seem to be 9mm and i require 15mm, are they convertable? And most rears are disc wheels, can these be used with rim brakes? Or can anyone suggest a better wheelset to look out for, or indeed have anything they are looking to shift.
Thanks guys and gals
