Congratulations!!!! How exciting when the planning and futzing over the bike and parts finally come together. Any changes in parts and such while thinking over the build? I know when I built the Rivendell Mountain I went back and forth on several items. Thought of doing an 8 speed freewheel, but it seemed much when accounting for the hub set up and scarcity of 8 speed freewheels. Planned on doing a Nitto built Ritchey stem, but going with the Softride suspension stem was a strong pull.
Take it slow, don't supper force anything. Take it easy with the hammer! Lol!!!
