I don't earn much and couldn't just go down to my LBS and walk out with a nice road bike.
So I've spent the last 2 years buying this bike 1 piece at a time. I started with the frame, which came from Italian ebay and cost me a princely €52 (plus €40 shipping) and have just kept grabbing what i though looked good as it came up.
I got all the SRAM rival stuff on ebay, in the middle of the night, on christmas eve, for a very silly price.
I'm so excited that it's finished and I've done a couple of 100 miles on it. Just had to shout about it!
