Nikolay :

Hello, I am buying/building my first mountain bike. Have done a lot of road racing, but first time mtb-er. I would appreciate a bit of help with the order. I am thinking of ordering 29er wheelset and a frame, plus handlebar and seatpost. I am 78 kg, 5'11" .I will get components groupset probably from a local store around here. Wheelset: The wider rim option, 3K, matte weave. Pillar psr x-tra 1420 aero black spokes. Black nipples. Light weight hubs, black if possible, to fit the frame. How many spokes do you think my wheels should have. I'm 78kg, will do primarily XC riding/racing (some single track mostly wider trails, no downhill, no jumping) Frame: Size 18" (Is that proper size for me? 5'11", 32" inseam ) Weave 12K or 3K matte finish (Could you send pictures of 12K vs 3K matte and glossy finish) Internal routing Seatpost: Could it be 3K matte finish as well. Sizing to fit the frame. Handlebar: Any info or options? Or It's better to get this from local store? Bottle Cage: 2 bottle cages (what is a popular design to hold bottles over rougher terrain? ) 3K matte finish Could you create a order list with pricing and shipping to Seattle, USA. What would the lead time be? Thank you, Nikolay

Hello Nikolay, Thanks for inquiry. What hub axle size do you like for 29er wheelset? front 9mm qr/rear 10*135mm qr? or front 15mm thru axle? What about the rear hub? It is ok to make 29er wide wheelset with 3k, matte, pillar 1420 black spokes and black nipples. For light weight hub, it is Novatec D711/D712 (front 9mm qr/rear 10*135mm qr). The wide wheelset is strong enough for your weight, please don't worry. And we will choose light rims for your wheelset. And for frame, please find attached geometry and weave picture. And let us know which you prefer. For handle bar, we only have flat bar, please find attached picture. It is USD39/pcs. Is it ok for you? For bottle cages, the ones as attached are the most popular. The cost will be USD568/pair for 29er wide wheelset, USD449/pcs for the frame, USD39 for handle bar, and USD9/pcs for bottle cages. The shipping cost is USD150 totally, because the frame needs to be packed seperately. So, there will be total two cartons shipped to you. One is for wheelset, and the other is for the frame. Once you check what you like, then i can create the invoice for you accordingly for you. Thanks, Light-bicycle
