Salsa Custom

Ductape

BoTM Winner
Finally found one that fits. Frame up build. Like most of my projects, this might take a while.
Excited to get started.
 
Pics then Tim, c'mon ;-)
 
First it has to make it in the right garage. Right now it is about 400 miles away at a friends place. The suspense is killing me, already have most of the parts laid out on the counter getting cleaned. Lets hear it for friends who are willing to do a pickup!

Probably won't get the frame until next month when we meet up at Keyesville. In the mean time still gathering followed by a liberal use of soap, water, an Phil Wood grease:



 
Ooh this is going to be fab.....dirt drops......multi mounts.......IRD.........CBR :cool:
 
The IRD will probably get passed over for a black XT post. The Koski fork has already been passed over for a fillet brazed Salsa fork. A work in progress. I am a sucker for black anno!

But yes, dirt drop. Been waiting forever for a proper frame. The DD bar will loose the current shifters for 732's, and get those 251 aero brake levers. Black tape of course.
 
Trying to look in those bags....don't see any rollcercams/u-brakes?
 
Canti front and rear (whew). As cool as roller cams are, it would take me that much longer to find and afford roller cams that would make me happy. They would go good with the WTB hubs and cockpit though. Trying to decide between black 732's or red Pederson/SE brakes. In the end the practical side will go with the black 732's but the red Pederson's might match the red chili's. Both brakes are proper to 1990.
