Thanks for the info, I have ordered a fork mounted hanger. The stem will be swapped out too, I don’t like the look of that style. I’ll likely use a Chinese eBay “ultra lite” one as I have used them on x.c bikes loads with no issues.
Keeping with the cheap theme, I have seen China carbon tubs for 170 on eBay
Recommendations for an all round cross tyre would be appreciated.
Toying with the idea of a lairy paint job or powder coat, but I’ll see how bad the paint is when the bike arrives.
Provisional plan for everything else is:
Sram gears.
Chinese carbon everywhere else.
