I was at Veloswap the last Saturday and Chris Kelly was there with a bunch of cross frames of his. They were going for some pretty good prices.
Building your own you could have done a nice bike for pretty low costs. But you can't be in a hurry and you have to look hard for good priced components.
I built a Basso Gap up for a friend and in the meantime he bought another bike. Since I was in a hurry I have some $1300 in it and while it's a really good bike, no one is interested in paying what it's worth at the moment. So it'll just sit in my garage until someone realizes that this is a $2200 bike for the cost of the parts.
