1. Thanks amberwolf...I'm still learning the terminology but yes I find the geared rear hubs appealing for greater ease of unassisted pedaling.
2. Thanks for the tip on Cordura, good to know!
3. Yes they salt the dickens out of the roads here. I've already replaced the frame on my Dodge and currently I'm in the process of patching up the rotted back half of a Chevy frame...I hate salt.
I'm trying to decide on components for the bike. I have the Shiver but it's heavy and the 20mm thru-axle is silly over-kill. Still might just go with it because I own it and have no other use for it, but I'm debating buying a nice light Rockshox SID or Reba instead. I also have to find out if the chainstay will clear a big single chainring and still have a good chainline.
