So new york people, who should I have build up my bike?
So far I have the frame, wheels & hubs (deep v's on formulas), seatpost (cheap kalloy), saddle (selle italia flite gel flow), toe clips (soma), double straps (soma), and bars (deda pista).
I'm willing to buy the rest of the parts from an lbs if they give me a break on the build. Basically, I need $40 or under sealed cartridge 1in threadless headset (fsa orbit or the like), 1in or 1 1/8in with shim threadless stem with 31.7 clamp, black sugino 75 165mm crank, 45 tooth sugino zen messenger ring, sealed cartridge BB, black chain, 2 DA lockrings, 2 DA cogs, black sylvans, cheapy black sidepull and lever for front, and tubes and tires (vittoria rubinos seem to have the biggest concensus, which model? slicks? 23mm good width for NYC streets? Any considerations for the upcoming winter assuming that if there's snow on the ground i'm leaving it home?). Any recommendations? Bike Works seems to have just about everything I'm looking for and for decent prices, but i'm open to suggestions.
