All City Spaceh̶o̶r̶s̶e̶ Clydesdale

So after 4 or so years, it’s time to rebuild this as something a bit different.

My riding has changed a lot since becoming a dad almost 4 years ago, and this is mainly used for commuting. I can’t remember when I last went out on a “road ride”. I’m also super over canti’s in the wet, so I wanted a flat bar with v brakes. We’re also knocking our house down to rebuild which means I am down to two bikes, with one being my Specialized “kid carrier”, because the rest will be in storage at my parents. I want something to commute on, ride gravel and do everything in between.

Plan is to make it a 1x10 with Nitto Bullmoose bars, front rack with basket. So, pretty much on-trend.

What was kept from the current build:
Frame, headset, seat post
Selle Italia Flite saddle
Soma porteur rack
Wald basket
Velo Orange bottle cages
H+Son Archetype laced to Shimano 105 hubs
Vittoria Voyager Hyper 700x40 tyres
Sram Rival cranks and GXP bottom bracket
Shimano PD A530 dual sided pedals
PDW Fenderbot
Spurcycle bell

Parts purchased:
Nitto Bullmoose bars (black)
Cult x Vans waffle grips (black)
Shimano Deore M6000 trigger shifter(s)*
Shimano Deore M6000 rear derailleur
Shimano 11-42 10 speed cassette
Shimano BL-T4000 brake levers
Tektro v-brakes
Cheap eBay 44t narrow wide chainring (already had from another build, but changed that to a 40t)

Yet to be purchased:
Velo Orange Zeppelin 52mm
Chain
Cable(s), outers and ferrules
Headset spacer (annoyingly I was in Blue Lug a few weeks ago when I bought the bars and didn’t think to get some Nitto spacers to match. I looked at ordering them online and it’s over $20AUD in postage)

*I bought these as a set and am keeping my front derailleur in case I want to go 2x10 at some point.
