I checked out my spare/used/extra parts and found

old steel Fisher hardtail frame
a flat handlebar
XT cranks (square taper)
XT BB
XT brakes
LX brake levers
seat post
saddle
old cassettes to cannabilize spacers
cables
pedals

I just ordered a Singleator and picked up some bolts to change to a single chainring up front. I'll post up some pics when I actually get some assembly done. Still need to make final fork decision (rigid or squishy) as I have none.

If you need a 4 bolt bashguard and spacers let me know. I'm parting out one of my converts as we speak. The add is on DR:

The Spot spacer kit is sweet and is all black. The bashguard is black as well and fits a 4 bolt crank like the XT on the bike.

Oh yeah, there's some sweet XTR V brakes that no one claimed yet either.
