I need some help picking a spec list for my new project. Basically im going to be doing tech singletrack (menia mostly, across from ansto for sydney folks), and thinking a single speed hardtail is in order.
BUT, im a BMX bandit at heart and XC stuff goes completely over my head, even though I work in a bike store i really don't know much about different brands etc, just how to fix it when it all goes pear shaped.
Here is the spec list I've got going at the moment
Frame: Charge duster large
Fork: Rockshox reba team duel airs 100mm OR 120mm
Brakes: Shimano XT, OR avid elixir R........... Leaning towards shimano because I find them easyer to set up.
Cranks: Shimano XT 175mm
Pedals: Shimano or Time
BB: shimano
Stem: Sunline AM 60mm
Headset: ????
Bars: ?????
Seat: ????
Post: ????
Headset: Whatevers sealed and is lying round the store
Wheels: Don't really know wats going on here, though there is a novatec single speed hub laced to some rim at work, and we don't get many novatecs back.
Tyres: Larsen front, crossmark rear.
This is all from the distro's I know we deal with at work, so my product knowledge is very limited. haha
Basically I'm after a second opinion on things, products you think work, or what you think works better than what I've got listed.
Thanks
