go to The Path and raid their take off collection. They also have 29'er take-off wheels

just FYI on the Zion frame you'll need the extended cup headset to make sure it clears your forks crown.

RST M-29 will clear with a CK headset and std race. If you run a REBA with that frame and a CK, you'll need the +7mm race I think.

[Rockinthecasbah]

cool will see what I end up with im not in a huge rush with this bike

This from the guy who said he hates 29ers and prefers 26ers. Glad to see you came to the dark side Ricky.

He's on a budget, so the Path probably isn't the best place to shop.

[Rockinthecasbah]

I just like to give people crap. I wanted to build a pure xc bike and it seems like 29ers are the way to go right now

[foofighter]

Check this out if you want triggers x9 w/ rear x9 dr at pricepoint

All this for $129

I have a set of those explorers and I think about their durability every time I ride them. But I've done some very stupid things with them and surpisingly they are holding up really well. I had to tighten one spoke when the nipple backed out, but the rest of wheels are very true.

[Chewyeti]

damn you ricky!!

[dstepper]

Sorry I can't help, I know nothing about a budget build, I have tried and always failed.

just found zion stems for 7 bucks bars for 14 a little iffy with a 7 dollar stem

[Chewyeti]

i have some stems and bars rick....

[Rockinthecasbah]

o yea lol enough for you .. I might go pick up the zions tommorow
wheels and fork are expensive

[Chewyeti]

nah i have 2 bars and 2 stems. we can work it out...

you dont have the frames yet?

[Rockinthecasbah]

o no frames in my room i was talking about stem and bars but if you got it were cool

[bikeadict]

I have some 29er stuff + other various bike parts... The only thing I don't have is a front derailleur (I have a few road ones but no extra mountain). Also, I'm pretty sure I have a 100mm stem, I'll have to check though (it may be thompson or race face or specialized..)

Wheels:
Mavic A417 Disc in black laced to 36h deore disc hubs in near new shape. (I also have tires and tubes)

Chainrings:
I could get you a set of decently new ramped and pinned rings

handle bar:
I have a super wide sycros riser that is Al or I have a Alpha Q carbon flat bar with one end that is slightly cracked due to a bar end install...

Headset:
I have a WTB momentum C in yellow or a race face deus XC in silver. (the WTB is in better shape than the Race Face)

Fork:
I have a reba race set at 80mm with the remote lock in great shape

Pedals:
I have a set of candy SL's in gray or blue or Mallet M's in orange

Seat:
Nothing new but a few used varing from cushey to racey...

let me know if you are interested. I would rather sell alot of parts over just one or two..

maybe he's trying to compensate for something?
