Good job! Tell me about a first frame-up build! On my first try I didn’t even know that different frames take different wheel sizes and ended up with a frame for 28” wheels and rod brakes equipped with a rear 700C wheel meant for caliper brakes and a front 24” wheel, also meant for rod brakes; of courses, no brakes would fit the contraption, but I rode it all the same.
