Just put this together from a combination of parts bin, eBay and heavily discounted frame of chainreaction. Whole build should come in about £400 which I think is pretty reasonable. Fork probably needs a service though.
Not sure if I’ll use it as a commuter but hope it’ll get used as a bit of a runabout pub bike if nothing else. Failing that it’ll get donated to one of the younger kids in the family.
Yes I know it still needs a chain…
@tuboflard that's a really similar build to mine above. Nukeproof solum, deore cranks... mega deals, both off CRC.
Did you get the pikes off the Ribble PSA also? What a bargain they were.
Reckon my build owes me about £700 but it was all new. I love it!
They’re only Reba’s @el_boufador but got them for £100 off eBay and I’ll not be doing any more than pump track stuff on it, no dirt jumping as my bones are too old and brittle for that. But yes I’m really happy with it, the Deore cranks we’re a steal as didn’t realise they came with a bottom bracket too so ridiculously cheap for the money.
Decided that I’ll build up the Azonic and see how I like having a dirt jumper before buying something newer and bigger. I measured the reach at about 380mm so I definitely think it’ll be on the small side.
Just missing a 160mm rotor and IS mount to finish it off. More details in https://singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/new-quite-old-bike-day-project-what-fork
