Build Notes:
READ THIS:
It is meant to be set up with a classy mullet (Moo-Lay) brake setup. We suggest using the Dia Compe BRS-202 up front and a BRS-101 in the rear. If you'd like to see what we have found in our brake testing scroll down to the bottom to see photos of certain setups. Beyond that you are welcome to experiment with other brakes, obviously, but we haven't had a chance to test the thousands of other brake options out there and find every possible setup.
The three smaller sizes are designed around a 650b wheelset and the four larger sizes use a 700c wheelset
Your max tire size will be 650x42 front and rear 38 or if your frame is 700 you'll be able to do 700x42 front and 700x35 rear. You can squeak a 38 in on the rear, but the clearances with certain brakes is too close to clear.
Set it up with a single, double, or triple ring crank
