This is a new frame I just bought on sale cheap. It's advertised as a 700C frame, but I tried my 26" Sram 2 speed on it along with a big crankset to see how it looked. So this is how it will be. I hope to keep it light and fast. It's a 22 inch frame so it will fit me better a little lower to the ground. The wheel is on backwards but it's just for a look.
Now I have to scrounge up forks and handlebars and everything else. I might have everything in my pile of parts..
I have another frame coming just like it that will be built 700C.

I tried a threaded fork but can't find a 34mm headset that is made for a threaded fork. My new unthreaded fork arrived yesterday. It's as heavy as the whole frame. I'll take both the frame and fork to the bike shop to be sure I have the right headset, although a 34mm looks right.

I gave the frame a few coats of clear this morning.
