Hi All,
Started with just the frame from ebay then built up myself.
Kept pretty much to the original geometry with the layback and the stem length, but the rest is a trade off between budget parts and durability.
Whole bike built for less than £200
What do you think ?
Gary Fisher Artemis frame
Shimano drivetrain (48t big ring)
Schwalbe City Jet 1.5 tyres
Tektro Vbrakes
Shimano SPD's
Maiden voyage tomorrow...
Comments welcome.

how do you stop that mat from sliding around on the laminate floor?

Nutt - it's got some of that grippy foam stuff under it (cheap in Ikea)
Capn' - thought about it, but it's so light I didn't really wanna start throwing stuff on it. Plus I tend to snap them.
