Hey, y’all!
So I’m building up one of those cheapo nashbar road frames for a lady aquaintance of mine and I’m wondering what componant set to throw on it. I’m looking to buy a whole group all at once for somewhere around $400.
Suggestions?
Links?
What’s the dif?
I need:
Cranks
brakes
levers/shifters
BB
headset
chain
casette
seatpost
stem
RD
FD
cables and shit
and probably a few things I’m to hungover to think of at the moment.

The highlighted you should get in a Shimano Groupset, the other things will need to be bought seperately
The stem is a personal choice for fit isn’t it and you have to get the right size post for the frame.
jenson has complete build kits that can be modified a bit. pricepoint does too sometimes but at that price range I think you are better off finding older stuff.
No, it just means you need a braze on adapter if your bike didn’t come with braze on front derailleur points. Adapters can be had for cheap, jsut make sure it’s the right size for your seat tube.
