  • I've just picked up a cheap Cross Check frame to build into a commuter/run about and am hoping for some advice on the build I'm thinking of.

    Seat post - Ritchey comp
    Headset - Cane Creek 40
    Handlebars - possibly Nitto Allrounder, but more likely the Cowbells I've got in the shed
    Brakes - Shimano BR CX50
    Shifters - Gevenalle CX 9 speed compatible
    Crankset - Race Face Ride 1x 175mm 34t
    Cassette - Ztto 11-40 9 speed
    Rear derailleur - Shimano Deore 9 speed long cage
    Bottom bracket - Shimano XT MT800

    Obviously other stuff, but those are the bits I'm not sure about compatible.

    Anyone done something similar? Anything glaringly incompatible?

    Second Surly. Definitely got a bit of a problem.
