Just about any web bike shop can build you custom....you need to decide what your budget is, than it's a snap from their. Come up with a budget, and I can assist you with what can be had for the money. If you go with a HT frame, and can live with 8 speed components, you can get a lot of bike for the money.

Hi Snaiperskaya. According to the link of the frame that you are planning to buy, that frame came with a carbon fiber fork:
-------------------------------------------------
With a price of only $195.00, it’s like getting the frame, stem, headset, and seatpost for free since you would expect to pay that much for the fork alone! Here’s the scoop:

Kinesis 7005 Aluminum Frame
Kinesis Carbon Pro Fork
Ritchey Comp Stem
Ritchey Comp Alloy Micro Adjustable Seatpost
Cane Creek AHeadset Threadless Headset
Aluminum Alloy Seatpost Clamp
-------------------------------------------------

Why are you looking to another carbon fiber fork ?

Best regards.

Marcelo

That was a mistake. I didn't want to put a link to a fork.

Also, would Shimano components, and either Disk brakes or traditional brakes be logical?
