Good point Tynan. I hadn't thought about brake failure issues. Two brakes it is!
Those white components look fab. I'm getting really excited about my 'project'.
I'm still looking for frames but I don't think I'll manage to find vert dropouts and don't want to start paying for frame alterations. I really need to keep this a budget build :-( I'd love to be able to get carried away with this one.
Are tensioners and vertical drop out SSs really much worse than horizontal dropout SSs?
