Title: Credit Crunch build
Post by: brettnai on December 21, 2008, 01:07 PM: Not quite finished but thought i'd share this. A bike I've knocked up for a mates xmas pressie cheap as chips
mostly unbranded parts. Reflex f+f which i had knocking about already. I'd say the bike so far has cost about £100 which isn't bad considering most of the bits are new or very close to.

Post by: brettnai on December 21, 2008, 08:32 PM: I bought this one off Pickle a few years back as a complete bike but over the years the other parts got used or sold and the f&f just sat in my spare room gathering dust.
I decided to build it for my best mates xmas present... but the more I look at it now the harder I think is going to be to part with it.

I think Reflex's are great! and the fact you don't have to remortgage the house to build one means your more likely to go out and have fun with it!
