Transition Trans Am? You could start building a full set of Tranny's!

As much as I love the look of the trans am it appears to be quite heavy, would build into a lovely hardtail but a bit heavy at 6.4 lbs for the frame

if it were me I'd either;

1) try and find a wheelset that could convert from 135 to 142 (no idea if you can)

or

2) buy the hardtail frame I really wanted and get a rear wheel to match whatever 'standard' it uses.

I have a new 142 x 12 wheelset that is going on the Bandit but want a hardtail the will run these wheels without having to convert them when using them on the hardtail.

Was hoping for something less racey and more trail orientated
