I have completed my cheap-as-chips build for a total of £108. The only bits I had to buy were the shifters and the bar tape. Everything else was in the bowels of my garage. I picked the wheels up last year brand new and unused with tyres for £37 and was waiting for something to put them on. So if you take them off @£70! all in.
I'll use it as it is for a while and see if it's a keeper. The trouble is that makes seven or eight with the tandem and at least twelve more need something doing to them before I get rid. Still it's a relatively cheap hobby and it keeps me out of the way of the bloody kids.
