BTW, It's the first time I buy a bike in parts and I'm planning to have it mounted in a bike workshop, but I'm not an expert and maybe I'm missing something. Could you help me? That's what I'm looking at:
- Whole SRAM Rival group 140/160 Diameter Disc Brake Rotor
- Elitewheels SLT 50MM * 29MM, RD12 XDR hub (with Pillar 1420 spokes?)
- Continental GP5000 25/28mm tyres (not sure, yet)
- Saddle (already bought)
Would you change bottom bracket? Would you change anything?
Any incompatibility, missing thing or simply advice will be appreciated.
I would have a look at:
https://roadmeister.cc/. Complete report on building his Velobuild bike, and includes his shopping list.
Few questions from my side:
1. Considered tubeless? I'm planning to go for the pro-one TLE from Schwalbe.
2. I would add foam liners to prevent rattling from the brake lines
3. I think you will need an adapter (FM 160>140) to fit the 140mm disc
4. Make sure to match mounting system of the discs to the rims (either centerlock or 6 bolt)
5. Bottle cages, rim tape, bar tape, tubeless valves ...
6. Start looking for the rival set soon, as all the Sram parts are really hard to find.
And finally, why not build it yourself, really great to do and will make maintenance a lot easier!
