How long is a piece of string,

Prices vary so much depending how and where you buy stuff, judging by recent ebay prices you need to spend at least 750 upwards,

My Trickstar stands me at about that,….the Torker (when finished) comes out at about 700, but my ball-burnished Ripper will be nearer a grand once I get my Redline Single Pinch Cranks on it….

On the other hand, my Vector will stand me at about £280 when I get a cheap seat to finish it….so you can still get a nice priced OS ride these days, but tbh you could easily spend well over £4k if you went and bought all Hutch components

depends on the bike

i prefer to do them chaply and restore stuff , but to be fair even that can be pricey

the ripper I have just done would cost 2k to buy now , and luckinly i had parts already from a time when things were cheaper

but yea for a top end build 2k is certainly doable

think most of mine come out around £400 - £600
but i have slowed right down on the buy build thing

last one i did was a NS huffy frame and fork fo rme daughter - that i was given so just the postage from the US
the rest i sourced as cheap as & all second hand where poss and that came out to £198 in the end   

so i could have brought her a brand new redline or haro expert sized bike for that  ::)

Don't think any of mine come in over £200.....but then they're all crap!   :2funny:
