This
was our first of the Vassago Fisticuff Cross bikes that we built up
for show and demo. Our goal of coruse was to make it look cool and
use some quality parts for performance. For more information on getting
one of these frames click the following link

Now
for the build kit...We choose to go with the SRAM drivetrain for performance
and look. As well as some good ole standard parts from Salsa, then
finished it off with some really cool Wood GRain wheels from Velocity.
The wheels are built up with Velocity's disc hubs as well in case
we choose to convert them later.
This bike is the Swiss Army Knife of Bikes...It can run 700c road,
cross, or small MTB tires, It can be drop bar, flat bar, or cross
bars. You can use disc brakes, canit brakes (shown) or even standard
road brakes. With this frame you cvan also run it as a fully geared,
single speed, or anywhere in between. The
pictures of this bike show off the size tires we were able to fit
in the frame and fork with out isse. Panaracer Fire Cross 700x45
