Scholey Posted February 12, 2009 Report Share Posted February 12, 2009 Alot of people now seem to like to keep 90% of there bike and simply when they feel the need for a change simply get a different frame. But this could be a problem for starter people who are looking at the frame to start with? I was wondering how much you think it would cost to build a frame up to "rideable standard" and of course to the best possible! Thanks (: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davey1991 Posted February 12, 2009 Report Share Posted February 12, 2009 A few ££££££That really was a useless reply.It completely depends what kind of spec your looking for.If you want something thats rideable you could maybe get something for under £100.If you want something reasonable spec £200 region.Or higher spec probably £300 plus.Unless like me you wait around to find deals leading to a completely top spec bike for less than £200.

Gogz- Posted February 12, 2009 Report Share Posted February 12, 2009 (edited) For a new bike any thing from £400 £500 will get you a nice bike £1000 for a pretty high speck one. Its a good idea to start with a full build then upgrade as you mash parts. It's always a good idea spend as much as you can afford.
