Hi All
I need a bit of advice if possible, as every bike shop I go to dont really want to help me as I am getting all my parts second hand.
So... I am in the process of getting all parts together to build my own
Racing bike.
I have the following parts so far.
- Campagnolo Record Front Mech
- Campagnolo Veloce Cassete (10 sp)
- Campagnolo Veloce Rear Mech
- Campagnolo Veloce Crankset - Veloce crankset with 53 and 39 chainrings, 170mm long and taper BB compatible also Campagnolo
- Campagnolo Khamsin G3 700c wheels
- Shimano Dura ace 7800 Brake calipers
- ITM Bar end Brake levers
- Profile airwing base bars with Stryke tri-bars
So basically, I need to know about the frame...(That I havent got yet)
and its compatibilty with the gear I have got already.
EG if I got an oldish 531 frame, would be any good? Or should I get newer Aluminium frame?
Or does anyone have a frame in mind or one for sale even?
I have a budget of 200 pounds for the frame (second hand or new).
And in addition to that, is the gear I have chosen going to be compatible?
I believe it will be but I would like to get some opinions
Thanks for any help.
