This is by far the most unplanned, spontaneous build I’ve done. Spotting the listing in the bargain buys section I checked them out and before I new it someone had pushed the buy button. I do love a bargain though. Having most bit in spares helped the decision. Stuck with a solid hopefully reliable build. Trying a couple of new goodies. One being the fox 34 fork, having not ridden a 34 in years apart from a stepcast this will be a new direction. Fork was already a good price but another $120 off through eBay sealed the deal. Drive train was an easy choice, xt 12speed as I know it’s a solid performer. Bars are another dip into the unknown, having nothing in spares over 730mm I decided to grab another set. Pro tapers were always good to me in the dirt bike days so given them a try. Grips and dropper remote are the go to choice. Rev grips and yep joystick remote. Only thing I don’t like about frame is press fit bb. Gone with wheels manufacturing thread together bb. Dominion brakes, another great brake and another bargain from crc. Picked up a fox 175mm dropper but have taken a gamble as was to impatient to wait for frame. Hopefully have everything needed arrive by next weekend for a build and beers session. Pics and spec list soon.

Bargain buys thread

I've heard good things about Saint brakes so I'm assuming these are a bargain? https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/808636324104421/ Claiming that a bent lever is actually better for one finger braking... For levers that are already designed for one finger braking... Tell him he's dreaming.
