I had a trek 7.2fx and the chainset wore after 4 years. Unfortunately the BB was completely seized and I ended up getting an engineering company to try to get it out. They damaged the threads so now the frame is dead.

I have the other parts from the trek wheels/shifters/handlebars etc and a new chainset etc which I had ready to go onto the trek.

So I have all the parts for a disc hybrid build except the frame.
I see on CRC they seem to have a pretty good deal on a kona dr dew frame + forks.

I've built a bike from frame/forks up but never right from the base level. What I'm wondering is what additional will I need or should I be able to lift everything from the trek 7.2.
