Ooooooooh, I'm getting excited. 99% got mine sorted but cant collect til end of September. Its early, a few bits missing but should only cost me a few quid so I'm guessing 150 ish to play with. That's all I can tell ya for now..........  ;)

MMmmm...sounds like fun this. I think I may just enter. Got a good deal on a F+F, headset, stem and seat post clamp for 80 quid and just landed some tuffs for 31 quid collected
on the bay.
Just need to ensure I don't go overboard with the rest of the bits.

OK I'm in!!

 ;)

Looking good Jaymz. 96 quid under budget too. I'd best get my finger out & get the rest of the parts for mine.

The idea is you use this thread for build updates, requests, teasers etc and i will start a poll thread like the usual BOTM threads when the time comes  :daumenhoch:
