Good advice. And I would if knew which headset to order. So many out there and I have not clue which fits and which won't.

Do you remember if the headset's lower cup was the bigger or the smaller one. Usually the bigger goes below while the smaller one gets on top but before I mess up I would lile to double check.

So I recently got this Nanlio fork which seems to be insane value.

However and this is my mistake of course is that the distance between quick release skewer and where the split ring sits is only 450mm and as I had to learn the hard way is much shorter than all of my bikes with suspension fork. This distance however is quite common and I have a hard time finding a fork on Ali that is considerably longer.

I don't care too much whether it is carbon or alloy..under 100 bucks would be nice though. I think it's needless to say but it should be compatible to disc breaks.

Anyone has any idea and ideally already experience with it?

Cheers!

I ordered the frame and will use it to build my first bike. I have not a lot of knowledge about the subject yet but always had a diy bike as one of my goals. In case someone used this frame to set up a bike and would ve willing to share a parts list (especially what type of bb can be used) this would be really appreciated.

Price is tempting  but as a noob i wouldnt know whether everything is aligned properly and whether this thing is safe to ride. Are there comparable alternatives that dont cost twice as much?
