well, i've spent a lot of time getting all the parts together for this build (actually my first real build). finally get my baby all built up and then i have to go and beak my toe on a saturday night. anyways, i'm hoping to be back in the saddle in a week (since it is only my little toe after all).

build details (from memory):
frame - fisher rig
fork - reba race set at 80 mm and handlebar mounted floodgate control
headset - king (old one without the king etched on the cups)
brakes - avid juicy 7's
handlebar - ec70
stem - richey wcs
grips - oury
hubs - am class ss rear and disc 130 front
rims - mavic a317
tires - irc mythos II (got em for cost, might throw on motos instead)
spokes - straight dt (not sure what gauge)
crank - raceface evolve ss 34t
cog - 17t am classic (20t surly on its way)
seatpost - thomson elite
seat - wtb laser v (pulled off my fully sussy)
pedals - candy ti's (not in the pic)
chain - pc58

hmm...i think i covered it all...can't wait to get this baby on the trail!
broken toe courtesy of flip-flops and a chair leg (compounded by several tnt's). oh yeah, i know i have fred flintstone feet. yabba-dabba-doo! :D

ps forgot to mention - the brake lines haven't been shortened yet so they're all over the place.

You will like it.

Congrtulations on a nice build. I have been riding mine (all stock components) for a little over a month now and I can't get enough of it.

toe

Make sure you get that toe looked at. there may not be much you can do, but it can affect the way you walk once it sets up. Especially if it's cocked funny, whick it looks like it is...

ps yes, I am speaking from experience...

pps cool bike. I want to see a head to head comparison of the Rig and a Niner...

i took a film of it monday morning, it's non-displaced (perks of dentistry). only thing i can do is tape it until a callous forms. hopefully 1-2 weeks of inactivity.
