Hi
I recently purchased the below frame from Jenson USA.
I have a few questions regarding the build.
1. It's supposed to take a 27.2 seatpost but my Syntace post of that size doesn't slide in smoothly. I measured the seat tube ID and it's more like 27mm. Can anyone recommend a good shop in Melbourne that can ream the seat tube? I will also get the shop to prep the BB and head tube etc.
2. I will be mounting a Sram XX crankset soon. Can anyone recommend a BB to go with it (GXP)? I'm thinking of the Chris King. Is it worth it?
3. Lastly, for a wheelset I'm planning on using DT Swiss 240s. I'm about 90kgs so was thinking of Mavic XM819s for rims. Any other rim recommendations? Also, should I stick to brass nipples and can anyone recommend a good wheel builder in Melbourne?
Cheers
