Hi Aid, You have to post a pic of your bash guard lol
I was thinking the front mech probably wouldnt fit so was thinking of going single ring at the front at first as my neighbours who ive ridden has that and i managed fine even on some pretty narly climbs. If i can drag my Ghost up hills with its gearing then a 3kg lighter bike should be pretty easy lol
I guess if i tell on-one what fork im going to use they will be able to supply a suitable headset
