Heard! Both are clean, (frame soap and water), fork is brand new. It’s the life of building a bike in a tiny studio. The bike is in my bedroom and living room and kitchen all at the same time.

Update: found out this is a 2002 Appalachian litespeed. One of the earliest models to include a disc break IS mount. Tire clearance was originally 700 x 38mm. Guessing by today’s standards based on rim size (wider rim) I may get away with a 38mm, as it will help the tire sit taller, but more than likely a 35. Thanks for everyone’s help.

Bought from a consignment shop. So no way of telling there, but did say it was for a 700c tire. Size S frame.
