Hello, welcome to BF, sorry to learn that your ride was pinched. Building a bike from the frame up will be neat, probably my next N+1 plan of action. What type of bike are you planning on building? We have a great Mechanics Forum that has some really sharp members answering questions and providing their knowledge and experience with those needing that type of help. Best of luck on your build, I'll look forward to seeing progress reports on the bike.
Bill
