I searched and found this on Page 55 of Current Projects for someone with a £400 budget: http://www.londonfgss.com/thread6261-55.html
**The Patient Method
**Buy a full good quality bike in your size on eBay for up to £200. Keep the frame and sell the parts to recoupe all or most of the cost.
(Optional) Repeat, but this time sell the frame and the excess parts keeping what you really like or need.
If done correctly you will have spent £0-150 at this point and have plenty of your budget left to splurge on the final missing pieces.
This works because full bikes from the 80s often go for the same price as a decent frame. And the small parts on those bikes are in demand.

Everyone has managed to give me decent advice and then I get this prunt with a chilli stuck up his arse wanting to "show me fuckin' tetchy." I'd like to say cheers to everyone except Bollocki.

Next up, jostling. Every forum has it's fair share of new members being initiated by the old timers by some friendly ribbing. But sometimes this can go too far, especially if (without searching first) you ask an oft-repeated, tired, or dumb question in your first post. It's not pleasant to watch new members get ripped to shreds, and really I'm doing you the biggest favour by forcing you to search first and look around before you ask... the guys here can be merciless towards the new, so say hello first and search thoroughly before you ask stuff. The result, yeah there's still some jostling, but not much, and the place is a hell of a lot friendlier for it and that is priceless.

I have no ojection to a bit of a jostle but all I wanted was a bit of advice. Cheers to everyone who's able to show humility.

They hardly got ripped to shreds, did they? The first UTFS was on post 22.
5 friendly forum folk gave good advice prior to that...
friendly forum folk? wtf?
I'll have you know I'm a badass mofo.
check the angry emoticon ffs >:I
@bodieanddoyle. Balki gave you the heads up on the unipack, a purchase you may have painfully regretted (I hear the chains are made from disgarded kinderegg wrappers). I think you took his piss taking the wrong way. Although 'billy big bollocks' and 'bollocki' were classy come backs, I salute you.

I personally was very surprised by RPM's comment. No swear words, no nothing. He must be ill or on ecstasy.

As I'm new here and don't want to appear to be pedantic but will in any case, ehren_fried_chicken gave me the heads up on the Unipack.

Psst! Shut it, Matt.

God, this logging in and out surely is tiresome.

Assumption is the mother of all fuck-ups, and I hadn't thought of that. Why would someone be on here as two different people?

Errrrmm, so it was.
So he did just take the piss.no wait...
There was all that info on gold, he so selflessly shared. Ungrateful bugger.
