I built mine up period correct and I am really enjoying the ride. Fact is, I am riding my Benotto more than my 2006 bike. Cost wise.......check out ebay. I would guess you can do a budget build with maybe $200.00 to $300.00 in parts.
IGNORE MY POST ABOVE: I read your post as you had the frame only. I agree with Ollo Ollo below.
