I would like to build a really simple basher bike, a 29er would be ideal.
Ideal world build would be...
29" wheels, mountain tyres (2.25-2.4 tyre clearance would be nice)
Chromoly frame/rigid fork (no need for suspension correction)
1-1/8" straight steerer, external cups would be nice.
English BB.
Maybe some rack mounts.
Gears and 135 spacing, preferably no sliding dropouts or any of that creak prone, complication creating malarky.
Kinda like it to have rim brakes.
I'm visualising something similar to an All-City JYD but with gears. Could do it in my sleep with a 26" bike but would like to do it with big wheels.
Any ideas for something off the shelf ? I'm not balleur enough for a custom bike.
