First the caveat: Sorry for the ignorance, I am new to the whole fixie thang.
From reading these discussions i bought a titanium tracker frame from ebay (my second only fixie - other was bought finished - this is my first build) and am looking for advice on the bits and bobs. Do I need specific crank/chainset / bottom bracket for a track frame like this? The frame doesn't mention anything about a BB thread (italian or british) does this usually mean i need to cut the thread - if so any recommendations as to who could do this for me? The frame doesn't come with a fork so if i buy a new fork can I cut it and thread it myself? Any recomendations for headset stem etc, am looking for a carbon/titanium non branded look, also am thinking of velocity v black wheelset, what do you think?
Thanks very much - and once agin sorry for thickness.
Cheers
