Hi All,
I have some spare bits from a couple of different bikes and builds. I am trying to figure out whether I should try and make another bike from what I have, or just sell off what I have as bits on eBay.
So here is what I have:
Two sets of Mavic wheels – CrossMax SX & basic Crossride, both 26
A Decathlon XL rockrider XC Frame, straight fit head tube with a Reba 115mm fork & decent Shimano brakes, Hope BB
150mm Rock Shox Revelation, 26in
Some decent bars
A Thompson post
I was thinking of getting a L size NS Eccentric Alu Evo, which is designed for 27.5 but I think could work fine with a set of the 26 in hoops & 26 in 150mm fork I have. The frame is about £200, but I would need a headset and a shorter stem. The decent Mavic wheels would work as they are are 142×12 rear end. I have got loads of 26 in tyres stockpiled.
I think the old leftovers like the Reba, cheaper wheels etc could all then go on Ebay as a firesale.
Am I nuts? I don’t need another bike, as I have an a 26in modern geo full susser and a 27.5 bird hardtail. So this is just for fun…
