Anyone else?

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.

Awesome!! Do the finished pics go up in here or will there be a seperate thread for our little gems?

oldschoolace · « **Reply #144 on:** September 02, 2012, 11:44 AM »

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
