So, weirdly saw an ali MTB frame on Amazon (was totally not, underlined not, browsing at work) and I've half a plan to build a lightweight-ish and simple urban-MTB. was thinking maybe 9/10 speed for cheapness, no dropper, don't need one, no suss fork don't need one. maybe tyres like hookworm - again don't need no skinny/road/gravel nonsense thank you v much. Point me at bargainous components like seat posts and stem, bars etc, cheaper the better - should look nice though.

What are you wanting to do with it, just cruise around?

As demonstrated with one of my bikes I have a bit of a thing for retro '90's frames built into cafe cruisers
