Bridgestone RB-4
I bought the frame for about $15, and I am hoping for some help with what parts I need. I hope to give it to my teenage daughter who loves her fixie, but wants a roadie to ride with me! Please help, as I haven't really been able to find much on parts appropriate, etc....
-There are no wheels, cogs, or chains, and my 700 Shimano RS10s don't seem to fit in the drops. Do I need 27" rims or something?
-Needs brake levers and calipers, etc.... Not sure what size/height I should be looking for.
- Down tube shifters seem in good shape, as does front derailleur, but no rear derailleur or hanger exists.
I know it is not the best Bridgestone, but it is steel, and she would really like it. Any help would be great. I don't really want another fixie out of it, if I can help it. Thanks! Bob
