I used an eccentric bottom bracket. I was on a very tight budget when I built this bike, and that was the least expensive option to make a single speed with disc brakes. This is a more detailed explanation of my plan for the frame in a video I made. It's the first video in detailed playlist I made while building this frame. kzitem.info/news/bejne/zYB81qiAnaJnhIo This is the complete playlist if you're interested: kzitem.info/door/PLyNdrtUfdbn2YVkFDfbgEZjD4gA_F0_jl

No issues with assembly for me kzitem.infoUgkxHL1v1R3NE5x4KiYfyt8dnQmyNYz7qi5L but I could see where some might benefit from using an experienced bike assembler/mechanic. I'm an older rider starting back after a 10 year break. This bike exceeds my capabilities and has been easy to get comfortable riding. I'm mostly on easy trails with almost no street riding and have not been disappointed with the performance of the bike. My fitness level is far below what I previously rode with and because of that the mileage is going on the bike slowly. While I'm losing weight slowly, the bike seems to tolerate my 220 pounds just fine. The bike has been used by several family members ranging from 5'5" - 5'9".

Thanks! Sorry for the late reply! The frame tubing is thin wall 4130 chromoly steel. The hole saw bits that I used are a mixture of mostly Milwaukee and Harbor Freight Bi-metal hole saws. I used an inexpensive Harbor Freight tube notcher with a drill press to notch the frame tubes, and I have a friend who owns a hydraulic tubing bender to bend the fork legs. The rest of the frame tubes (seat stays and chain stays) were already pre bent from the company where I purchased the tubing kit (nova cycle). I've got a couple longer playlists from this frame and my first frame that go into much more detail on the tools and lots of other things if you're interested. kzitem.info/door/PLyNdrtUfdbn2YVkFDfbgEZjD4gA_F0_j kzitem.info/door/PLaz6WjKNr9tX_mYw8U5x24Ngyv0UTnX4x

Well, in my case, the needed tools were a computer to do research, I already owened a Tig welder, but something to join metal is needed. This frame was built with a lot of basic hand tools otherwise. It's really up to your imagination and budget. Otherwise a hacksaw and a file. Some way to hold the tubes in place to tack them together. I have a full playlist of this frame build, as well as my very first frame build. I was on a very tight budget, so I built most of the tools I needed.

Any 4130 chromoly will be the best material for a steel bike frame. You can get some basic straight gauge tubing from Aircraft Spruce that's pretty inexpensive. The tubing I used to build this frame was double butted chromoly that I purchased from Nova cycles. I think it was around $120 for the complete tubing kit.

I’ve used the mig welding process for lots of different projects. It’s definitely faster and easier than tig welding, but for welding thin wall chromoly, tig welding is the way to go.
