Very nice, this is going to be good, I do like White Industries hubs, another thing on the (long) list of things I wish I'd never sold!
thanks ben! getting ever so close to building this one

interested to learn more what parts are needed?
Thanks for info…will start seeking parts really enjoy riding my racelite & would be good to get my original bonty or riding again…All you really need is to find a 700c canti post fork and move the rear breaks. Mine came with this little contraption from a brand called Muqzi.

It moves the whole caliper up though they also make one that just moves the pads. The rear brake would very easily lock up still though it felt really squishy which I'm not sure should be attributed to the little converter or the cheapo plastic levers/cables that were on there.
Mavic used to make a converter but I couldn't find one anywhere.

Nice! You have my wheels! Same ones I'll be building for my Race Lite. But you also have the tires, whereas I have mismatched pair: a skinwall Jones front and a black wall Jones rear. It's driving me nuts!Sorry, last photo was pretty lazy...
the tire/rim logos lined up on the front and I hate it but I struggled getting the tires mounted and I can't be bothered to fix it yet.View attachment 702953

I know ! I'm still keeping an eye out for Jones tires for you.Nice! You have my wheels! Same ones I'll be building for my Race Lite. But you also have the tires, whereas I have mismatched pair: a skinwall Jones front and a black wall Jones rear. It's driving me nuts!
I'll have to update my thread so as not to hijack yours...but I'm making incremental slow progress. You're clearly in the lead, with build #3 while I still languish with #1!I know ! I'm still keeping an eye out for Jones tires for you.
I found my mag 21 was only holding air on one side so I've got new valves that just arrived. I need to figure out how to replace them and see if that does the trick. Then it's just a matter of building the bike!
