Think think thinking



Hmmmm. I might have to change my mind about this frame. If I didn't have to worry about the headset and the fork it would be a different story. But I was looking for a bike that I could just swap my Japanese parts onto, and thats not going to happen with this guy
plus I'm sort of on a budget, will this end up being over $100 including a new Single Speed French BB, fork, headset, and paint? I have pretty much everything needed after that. Do you think it will be worth it?
Not to mention the extra time spent on stripping (crank and paint) and painting. Which the seller offered to provide help/materials/tools. I bet this will have a better ride than my Dept store aluminum road frame. My girlfriends Centurion Sport DLX rides like a dream, I'm hoping this frame will have better ride quality.
Thanks Again I love this site.
