Not a bad idea, but I want to build it myself, also, how much more in sync with your ride can you be if you hand selected every single part down to the bearings?
Thanks for info on other stuff guys, and I've been riding track drops on the street for about 6 months, in NYC, I like them.
And the Nitto Jag is for looks, god forbid i should take looks into consideration when making a bike!!!
: )
also, Idk how else to clarify haha, I'm getting the Frameset from Bike Island, not the Kilo TT with stock parts
