located a Centurian IronMan, 57cm frame, fork, Bottom Bracket and headset for $100. Read up a little about them in sheldon's website, knowing as little as I do at this point it sounds like a possible potential good starting point?
Again a big part of this is the build, I WANT to build something, dont mind putting in the hours learning and wrenching, I have never been a buy it complete kind of guy. Its as much another project for me to tinker with as it is a mode of transportation.
