I know there are other threads like this elsewhere on the forum, and I apologize for adding to the pile of corpses. However, the ones I saw didn't answer the question/s I have.

To Santaria, thanks for the advice. My main point is that I want to start riding now, and am wondering if getting a basic full built bike for cheap right now, AND then slowly upgrading components would be a good idea. Or if I should just suck it up and save more money to buy a Kilo or the like. My basic idea is to buy an entry level frame(that just happens to have the other parts so I can ride now) and then upgrade slowly until I can finally upgrade the frame.

Am I being hasty?
