Current project , but just finished .
Has anyone seen the bargain basement section on Planet X ?
Recently built this up after an abortive project to restore an old school Giant OCR . ( frame was fucked basically ) so was left with some 9 speed campag veloce bits , chainset mechs and one working ergo lever . So after digging around in my garage and trips to decathlon and ebay ( again ) I bought a new SAB rc4 alloy frame from Planet X for £ 44.99 some , new XT pedals a selle italia team and some OS bars from decathlon . Total cost sub £200 . Not very spangly but frame not bad at all for money ( 1400 g ) and olde school campag nice to use and cheap . Not worth throwing to much money at but as a cheap mile muncher I am very pleased .

Looks nice, especially for that money. Looks like you should slide your saddle more forward though.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

> Quote text by starting lines with >

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```
Your code goes here
```
Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.

If you upload more than 5 files we will display all attachments as thumbnails.
