• this might be a dumb question but (hasn't stopped me before)... would I have any issues if I bought the pfadfinder frameset and transferred across all the kit from my current arkose D3? post-mount brakes, thru-axles are same sizes, everything seems like it would work... only issues potentially (which don't seem major really):

    • pfadfinder seatpost is 31.8 (D3 is 27.2)
    • pf fd clamp is 31.8 (D3 30.9)
    • bottom bracket? D3 is praxis M30 BSA - find bottom brackets confusing enough as it is
  • pfadfinder seatpost is 31.8 (D3 is 27.2)

    I don't think it is. 31.6 is the common seatpost size. Looks 27.2 to me. Probably 31.8 clamp

    pf fd clamp is 31.8 (D3 30.9)

    Cheap to replace

    bottom bracket? D3 is praxis M30 BSA - find bottom brackets confusing enough as it is

    I think the Standert uses T47, a new standard of oversize threaded BB shell. You will be able to use your cranks but you'll need to buy a suitable BB

  • Pfadfinder is flat mount so you’ll need adapters too but cheaper than buying whole new set of calipers
