or
Buy a Kilo TT for $400ish dollars, take it to a shop, have them build it for $60-80.
You give bad advice.
And learn how to take some pictures without using the flash.
You'll note the part where I said to the OP, "If you have the $". You don't know the OP's financial position. Maybe $1000 is not much for her and maybe she'd enjoy a custom build more.
My advice is good if you take it for what it is...a suggestion. I'm tired of seeing Kilo TT's shoved down every new person's throat. If they want to go with that, fine. But you don't need to bash every opinion that doesn't involve buying a damn Kilo TT from Bikesdirect.
