Hi All! Over the past week, got around to assembling my wife's 50cm Platypus. Chased the threads, installed the HS, aligned the derailleur hanger and Frame Savered the innards. Built it up with the following: Velocity Cliffhangers, 32h with Deore T610 hubset and Sapim spokes. 584x48 Rene Herse Switchback Hill. Brooks Cambium C17 carved all-weather saddle on Nitto S65 post. XT BLR780 levers with Deore T610 linear pull brakes. Nitto Choco bars, Nitto Dynamic stem and ESI grips. 1x10 setup using 11-40 Praxis 10 speed cassette. M780 series XT derailleur and trigger shifters. Wolftooth 38t chainring on Suntour XCPro 170mm crankset. UN72 107mm BB. Spank Oozy 2.0 trail pedals. Blue Lug HS spacers and Forager cable cherry (rear der).
