Yep.......if you adhere to the rules by the letter of the law (so to speak) all you have to have is a 1" threaded headset and caliper brake.

but in the spirit of OS and fairplay i would try and use as many OS parts as i could.

mate its going to be wet and as well as Daggers drains you are going to want more grip than usual so yeah comp 3's will be fine - ive changed from my normal lower tread profile to comps.

now all ive got to do is sort which gearing....
