Ok, so i am collecting bits for my new summer build.
The frame is a Wabi Classic, they state i should use a 68/103 bottom bracket.
I am using FSA Gimandi cranks, chain reaction tell me with those cranks i should use 110.5mm bottom bracket....so which should i go for? I would quite like to order the bottom bracket and cranks at the same time.
Also any advice on which BB to go for in terms of make model would be good, im trying to build this bike with a close eye on weight to be honest.
Cheers

Approx...1200 for the front and 1300 for the rear...
The 40mm are obviously heavier than the 30mm rims and the Miche hubs are slightly lighter than the Nova and Quando's
Lightest would be Miche with DP18s, heaviest would be Quando with Pegasus.
VMany thanks for the reply, as lovely as they look i think i am after something a touch lighter.
Thank you.

Sadly i have decided to sell a frame i have never got round to building up.
I bought this frame with the intention of building up my dream street/dirt bike, if you know about these things you will know how special this frame is.
Its a size medium, it has no dents, no substancial marks, a few stone chips but nothing to write home about at all, no cable rub etc etc. It is finished the option extra camo poweder coat which was a 299 euro added extra.
The frame currently retails for 1299 euros in this paint scheme.
This is what nicolai say about their frame:
**[ product details ]
**[SIZE=1]The 2MXTB does not fit neatly into any conventional bike category and is probably the only hardtail that is built especially for freeride and downhill use. The 2MXTB can take long triple-crown or freeride forks and even provides space for 3 inch wide tires. The 2MXTB is a monster bike - ideal for riders who break everything they get their hands on. On the 2MXTB they will have met their match. Unlike a downhill full suspension frame the 2MXTB requires no special service or maintenance. This machine is for fun only.[/SIZE]
Here is the link to the webpage:

There are plenty of details of the frame, videos, tech, pictures etc on the website, below are a couple of pictures of the actual frame for sale:
I think around £500 would be fair, but obviously these things are rare, so hard to price.
I would be interested also in any components for a light weight single speed build i am starting, all components needed apart from frame and forks.
I am located on regents canal, near mile end/victoria park.
