Touring Bike Parts List

Below is a list of all the major parts on our new touring bikes for 2004.  The bikes were designed to use 26 inch mountain bike wheels but, because of  a glitch in building of the frames, we are using a 700c fork (with a 26 inch mountain bike wheel).  Odd as it seems, it is working because we are using disc brakes.  It would not work with rim brakes since the brake bosses would be in the wrong location. A  photo of the assembled bike is at the end of the list.
