stuff like that, i would do with my road bike. Road bikes are fun for full builds.
My father use to have a Raleigh bike, when is saw the bike in my favorite color "lambo orange", i had to have it. components didnt matter to me much, i wanted the color and wanted the carbon fork. worked out well. the bike was only 600 so it wasn't bad at all.
