i did my first conversion for £180 pounds, it's possible.
find a very very cheap old road bike preferably with a single front chainring, and brakes seatpost in a servicable condition, buy a wheel set off here or ebay for as little as possible, get a new chain, service the headset and bottom bracket as far as it possible.
upgrade things as and when the break
then chuck on some new bar tape and hey presto you have a new bike!
