This will be my second bike build and very different from my first which was a tandem. I would appreciate any polite advice.
I'm stuck on the crankset/bottom bracket because I'd like to go with Sram but I've read many reviews about problems with them. I don't want the Sram Red bb because of the cost and the fact that the color red will clash with my bike (at least that's what I was told years ago; red and pink together are a no-no
). I would consider another manufacturer so ideas appreciated.
I also have no experience with the TRP Hy/Rd calipers. I used the Avid BB7 calipers on the tandem and not entirely happy with them.
I am fairly light at 115 pounds. For the wheel build: I'm planning 2x front disc side, radial front non-disc side and 2x both sides on the rear.
