Nah man not at all, So far From what I can remember is up to around 2000 give or take... I'm not 100% but its around that....

That's very reasonable! Especially considering the high level of spec. Apart from the second hand frame was everything else new? Such a nice bike

You could basically call the frame new, The bloke I bought it off bought it new and NEVER built it up, It came to my house still in its original wrapping.

The only parts on the bike that arent new are: the stem, brake, seatpost and cranks, everything else was bought new either from my LBS or overseas...
The wheels I got from CRC cos a mate at the local couldn't get anywhere near the price I got them for, and the fork, pedals and bars also came from there for the same reason

Everything else was LBS bought..

With the exception of Rick from fearless who helped me out with all the Dartmoor parts..
Rick is a Boss! Thanks Mate!!

My total cost is probably closer to 2200 but I stopped counting long ago...
I built it up just using parts that I wanted rather than for weight (I'm not a weight weenie) so I'm just lucky that she come in under 11 kegs...

My bike spends time on the trails, not the scales...

Hope this helps...

Anymore suggestions or questions just ask away.... I don't bite

Cheers
Matt :)

Thanks mate! I really appreciate it!!

I'm really happy with it now, I'm just looking for a brake to put on and maybe a new set of bars, something with a bit more rise..

If you ever get the opportunity to buy one, do it.. They're not cheap but they ride amazing. :)
Have you ever ridden one?
