Count me in too. It'll be a double challenge for me. I can't stick to a budget for 5hit. My current "it'll only cost a few bob" build has gone daft! and I've only got an adjustable spanner and some rusty pliers.

Are there any rules about what it must have on it like brakes and a seat. That would save a few bob if not  ;)

missed this thread

not sure if this will qualify and sorry to drag it up again  :LolLolLolLol:

wondered if you might consider this and the attached  threads in the link? 

 be warned it is a bit of a saga, just read through it and shouldn't of done  :-[ :-[    :LolLolLolLol:  strangely enough i posted the first thread up just before MK    :D  and i stand by my statement for a small prize awarded for a deffinate id on the f+f cos i still have'nt got a clue  :daumenhoch:







and the epic saga  resulting in a bike that is just gathering dust,    and left me firmly sat on the "ride em don't polish em "   side of the fence   :LolLolLolLol: :daumenhoch:

Looks like that would have been a perfect entry. There was a stunning kalkhoff  http://www.radbmx.co.uk/forum/index.php'topic=145030.0
that also would have been a great entry in this build off but we need new builds  :daumenhoch:

Cracking build for the money all the same though fella  :4_17_5:

I would like to enter as well guys if that's ok?

Might pull my Marlboro off eBay and use that as it only cost me £40 and it's a 1981 bike

How about the winner gets to choose to swap their bike with any of the entry bikes? Will stop people using high end parts for fear of loosing them lol
