if you want to build and want to look for parts. be very careful with ebay. dunno if there are dummy bidders (or maybe they're just plain dumb!?!?), but people out there are payin for used parts that cost more than brand new parts! cranksets for example.
it is fun build from the ground up, but can be expensive. but sometimes you can get lucky. what i'd do is look for old complete road bikes and sell off parts you dont want/need. could work out cheaper that way.
