I haven't had a bike since 1999 and I've been lurking here since March. I ended up picking up an 08 Teocali frame and fork at a bargain price I couldn't pass up. Now I'm in need of some help picking out what I need to complete it.
I'm not looking for anything super expensive but trying to get the best bang for my buck. I don't see myself doing any major drops at this stage.
1. Wheels:
I had my eye on Mavic X317 disc or WTB Speed disc wheels. Thoughts?
2. Brakes:
I want hydraulic brakes but other than the bolt count to the wheel I don't know much more. Some of the wheels I've looked at have rotors already.
Do I need to worry about rotor compatibility?
3. Rear Cassette:
Will any SRAM cassette work?
4. Shock:
I'd like to upgrade the rear shock to a Fox RP23 and believe the 7.5 x 2 is the correct size?
Thanks for any help you can give.
