i just walked into a bike shop looking to buy a front road wheel and managed to walk out with a small steel bianchi mtb frame.. so it seems i'm building a mountain bike for my gf.
as this was never intended to happen, i'd like to keep costs low - i'm looking for a cheap mtb grouppo, something 9 or 10s.
rear derailleur is top normal
front mech is top pull, clamp on, 28.6mm
bb is english threaded
shifters.. well, looking for those too.
also if anyone has a ~80mm suspension fork going cheap (preferrably V mounts only), let me know..
i know this is not the most appropriate forum to look for such things but this is the forum i know and it has lead me to some nice things in the past, so i thought i'd start here.
