That's a sweet book! I love hardbacks!
But, how do you build up a book? Change the binding? What?
What book is it? Who's the author?
Oh wait, you mean the frame. Oh yeah, it's nice too!

Titanium...oooohhhhhh.......drool!

OK. So, details. How you gonna build her up? What fork? Rims? Hubs? Tires? Crankset? Are you going to use a chain tensioner?
Enquiring minds want to know!

I had the previous frame built up as a single, but I think I'll gear this one.
I have ordered a Manitou Black Elite 80/100 fork. The old drivetrain will go on: 2x9, XTR front mech and cassette, SRAM 9.0sl rear mech and shifters, race face cranks, race face ti bb.
Avid mechanical discs will handle stopping duties and I think I'll put on a set of the Crossmax XL disc wheels.

What's your goal weight (bike)? Looks to be LIGHT! I'd like to give it a try - but the big technical rocks keep calling me to the DARK hefty travel side...
