got a cannondale t500 frame from a friend of a friend that i want to build into a commuter.
not sure of the year. it's the frame/fork/headset/bottom bracket and crank.
the rest i guess i got to buy/build. hopfully on the cheap, but i've never done anything like this before so that might be a little naive. should be a fun winter project though.
is there any place where i can find out what size parts i'll need? rooted arround cannondale site but didn't see anything for t500. also, there are no markings on the (tripple) chain rings. is there a way to tell what size it is? i'm guessing i'll have to find a rear cassette that will match it.
got any tips? where should i start? drive train, wheels, cables?
got advice to look for used parts on ebay and craig's list. any other sites out there?
thanks.
