or will it be better to buy this version of the onza armstrongs

http://www.supercycles.co.uk/site_details.asp?ProductID=346

This is for people that need freewheels like J-kay

I don't think it matters about the cost, but I think a full bike looks better as it's all the same. And usuasly ones that are build up look cheesy and multicoloured.

Thats the thing i dont have 420 i dont even have 10 pounds. if i sell my bike i will only get 130 so its not enough. i cant post the stuff i want to sell o here yet. and if i did buy the full bike i would only have it for like a month because we might be moving to america so i was just going to buy the t-pro frame, forks and onza armstrong cranks so then its easier to ship it out

I built my bike from scratch and chose every single component that I wanted. I ended up with the exact bike I wanted and for a decent price. When I look at manufacturers complete bikes now I see I made the right decision, there are bikes that cost £400 more than mine that have inferior parts. I've never seen any full bike to buy that is around the same price as I built mine for that has a similar spec, at least in terms of quality.

But then it did take me a fair while to accumulate and build the bike so the full bike option is the easier of the two.

Just buy a bike when you are there?

It's not like you could ride just a frame for the next month,

so it wouldnt mean you are without a trials bike until you get there.

There is loads of good stuff for sale in america on OTN.

I am actually finding it hard to find sites in america that sell onzas in the florida region. can you give a link for OTN please.

What i was just going to do was buy the main onza parts like the t-pro frame, forks and onza armstrong chain set. and then if i did move i can buy cheaper non-onza parts out there
