Thats about right price wise, FBM make quality frames so you wont go far wrong with it

How tall are you though? Its only a 20.5" tt so if your 5'6" or bigger then ideally you'll want a longer tt

Your probably looking at another 250/300 quid to kit it out with decent used parts so might be better to buy a used complete bike?

I'm 5'6,11 stone,i know a complete bike would be better value but i want to build one up to my own spec then i can research and pick what i want within  budget.
