I also built this bike by myself, first time ever doing a frame-up build, and used GC's SL8 bike build and his other videos.

First ride with the Thunder Burt, IMO the best tyre for the frame if you do not plan intense mud battles.

Aside from buying the frame, I need group set and wheels. Do I need to purchase anything else to complete the build?

Hydraulic Hoses
Saddle
Brake discs
Bar tape
Bottom bracket 
Tyres
Tubes
Bottle Cages
Pedals/spds
Chain if not supplied with groupset

Tools for install potentially depending on what tools you have
brake bleed kit and relevant oil for brake
Brake Pads if not supplied with groupset Tools
