I recently purchased a Diamondback 29er Hardtail frame and it bare except for rear axle and a raceface seat post.

I contacted diamondback and their super nice but they're limited on employees right now so hoping my pinkbike community is able to help.

Wheels I got with this frame are Revolution Trail29's.

I could use help on what cassette is needed for this rear hub too.

it also came with a Shimano Deore XT 10spd rear derailleur Part#RD-M786 (version GS and black color)
If there is any specs for crank/, required, or recommended would be great.

I would like to build it to have some fun in the north GA mountains


THANK YOU

Looks real nice for a DB

I would hazard a guess as to 120mm fork upfront

Nice found a few 120mm forks. Wish i new what the frame specs were. Ill keep an eye on 120mm

What relatively really good quality for looking to shop on a budget as shipping for the parts is probably gonna almost kill me.lol the joys of being deployed/tdy

Cannot see head tube but reckon it'll be a tapered steerer fork and that CaneCreek have a headset calculator

Shimano type fitment for cassette btw ;-)

9/10/11 & should be doable with SunRace 12speed even
