Hey guys, I picked up some free bikes and bits a lady was giving away.
Originally I thought I'd get the Giant running and decide if I'd keep it or not and sell the other frames but when I saw the frame where the seat pole goes in was squished to fit a skinny pole.
I'll also add a pic of my GT Avelance which I might swap some parts around on as well.
My goal is to have 1 practical bike and 1 thrash bike but at the moment my dilema is if I should leave my good GT with the 1×7 driveline or change it back to 3x7 and and make the other bike a 1x8 or 1x9.
I'll probably build up the GT Ricochet as the thrash bike, keep the forks that are on it, use the stem and handlebars from my Avalanche, put the Giant stem on the Avelance and get new bars for it (or I might see if I'm able to clean the Giant ones up).
At minimum I need a seat, seat pole, grips, maybe a chain, cassette/freewheel and some brake pads. I wish I didn't throw all my old parts out but I have some new brake and gear cables.
Just throwing ideas around for now but any input of other ideas or if you think it might be better to build one of the other bikes for some reason.
Any ideas or help appreciated.
