Slam 69 built the wheels, they are a seriously cool shop in Brockworth, Glos. Well worth a visit if you are in the area, they stock Surlys and Restrap.
Deciding on tyres, either Gravelkings or Byways. I have an old Deore disc brake although wondering whether the build deserves a new brake. After getting thoroughly soaked the last couple if weeks very keen on full mudguards as well. Also fitting the Chris King headset and an S65 seatpost for the final build.
What tyre size/mudguard size combo are you going for? I believe this is a steamroller with 37mm sport contacts and mudguards. Although I don’t have any info so I’m just guessing by what they look like.
I am a bit stumped as I have no experience of fitting proper mudguards. There is an inch plus of clearance in the front fork now. A friend mentioned fitting 700cc mudguards. I know I want silver ones and that is about it.
