koxxtrials Posted September 19, 2007 Report Share Posted September 19, 2007 my t mag 2 cost 650 (bought by my dad) and about 100 on parts (bought by me) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eskimo Posted September 19, 2007 Report Share Posted September 19, 2007 The single most expensive thing i bought was my DDG Shooter years ago. It was £600 and had El Gatos and oversize bars, the works! But recently i invested in a Triton frame which was rather costly. Other orders tend to be from £30 to £200 these days. Spent £300 on a Holroyd, £200 on a Adamant and £180 on a Megamo within 2 months. Plus enough on other parts which include Echo freehub wheel and Control forks. Each paycheck gets rinsed on bikes :$ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greetings Posted September 19, 2007 Report Share Posted September 19, 2007 Not much although I got a Triton frame recently which cost me a bomb. I always look for the cheapest shop regardless of it's location. It's really worth it if you're getting small but expensive parts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muel Posted September 20, 2007 Report Share Posted September 20, 2007 This topic is GAY!What does it matter what we all spent on our bikes, really? I spent a lot more on my bike than some people, and they are much better than me!Make some vids, just ride what you've got, rather than spending extra hours at work to pay for a posher bike.

Gotta get new forks, a chain tensioner, a bash ring, shorter crank arms, new brake levers and a new pair of tires, so looks like ive got about £80 to spend to get it to where i want equaling a nice bike for £95. Cant be anything wrong with that seeing as ive just started. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
