hi i am gonna build a TT bike

i have frame and forks for about 3 months and dont know were to start to build the bike i don't know what fits or how to build any tips ?

thnks
 
your best bet would be to buy a groupset. that way you will get all the rudimentary components you'll need. i.e brakes gears headset bottom bracket etc then you'll need a saddle, seat post, wheels and handle bars. once you get all of those you have a bike in the making. enjoy...
 
The frameset manufacturer can/should provide you with the specs on your frame & fork.

http://www.coloradocyclist.com/

They offer complete build kits and groupsets for road & mtn bikes. They also build custom wheelsets. If you don't have a good LBS to work with, you could give coloradocyclist a call and see what they can do for you.

And do you have the skills/knowledge/tools to build your bike? Or do you need a shop to do it for you?
 
get some wheels (road bike wheels, probably with extra tires and patch kits) some brakes, brake pads, you'll probably need some special wrenches to put together the fork, and just experiment for a while
