nice one, i do like the look of this, but upon closer inspection of his ebay feedback, it would appear that he's bought all the parts from this account, and it's all listed with full contact details on there, so I reckon my small investment into some tools till my toolbox does come from the UK will save me a fair few dollars..
frame $140
wheels $100
seat $15
crankset, chain $50
handlebars $18
stem $40
front brake $50
tyres $40
pedals and clips $20
so i make that about $470 and i can maybe change a few things on there to suit?
Is there anything else that i'd need or is that it? seems that the wheels are complete when you buy them off ebay here, similar to the ones being sold on here, 40mm deep v section, but there $80.00 + postage here.. at last something cheaper than in the UK..
will i need a lot of tools? suppose just order it and then buy the tools to suit, unless anyone know's off hand?
