Hi from north Florida
#1
I am just starting to ride again after decades. I only have a used carbon fiber frame and need advice on parts to get for it and to put it together.

I have old pedals, handle bar, and saddle from the early 1990s off my old bike that is gone. I think there are head tube bearings on the carbon frame, but I don't know if they are good or not. Not needing to be fancy about it, just want a sound road bike to ride.

I have worked on my vehicles, but I assume I will need specialty tools for bikes.

Thanks for any help!

Jacob
