    Just about any web bike shop can build you custom....you need to decide what your budget is, than it's a snap from their. Come up with a budget, and I can assist you with what can be had for the money. If you go with a HT frame, and can live with 8 speed components, you can get a lot of bike for the money.

  3. my budget is up to around 800 dollars, and i am building a mountain cross bike, can you help me.

    thanks!

  4. can you name I site that i can build a custom bike on, I would really like to know.

  5. bikerdude,don't you have any good bike shops in your area?
    at $800. you should look into complete bikes from your local shop.
    if you cannot find one,email me. i can help!

  6. I am kind of a novice to cycle building. I need to know what is nessicary for building a Multi-Speed Road Touring bike. From there by using suppilied directions I can figure out where the ends and outs go.

    Hi Snaiperskaya. According to the link of the frame that you are planning to buy, that frame came with a carbon fiber fork:
    -------------------------------------------------
    With a price of only $195.00, it’s like getting the frame, stem, headset, and seatpost for free since you would expect to pay that much for the fork alone! Here’s the scoop:

    Kinesis 7005 Aluminum Frame
    Kinesis Carbon Pro Fork
    Ritchey Comp Stem
    Ritchey Comp Alloy Micro Adjustable Seatpost
    Cane Creek AHeadset Threadless Headset
    Aluminum Alloy Seatpost Clamp
    -------------------------------------------------

    Why are you looking to another carbon fiber fork ?

    Best regards.

    Marcelo

  8. That was a mistake. I didn't want to put a link to a fork.

    Also, would Shimano components, and either Disk brakes or traditional brakes be logical?
