Honestly, People who are inclined to tinker with their bikes, you wouldn't be thinking of the general amount money your spending, but on what money you have available and what you can afford that time. And Now its just a nail in the coffin that I am 100% financially irresponsible, yet satisfied and happy with my decisions.

I agree with a lot of folks here, you kinda have to know what you want, how much you want to spend ahead of time, and what you'd be willing to settle for - and then start looking for parts sources (marketplace, kijiji, craigslist, bike co-ops etc...). At least if you care about coming ahead on cost. If you don't? It makes sense to be okay with spending the cash.

The best thing about custom built bikes is exactly that. Custom built gives you all the parts you want, on the exact frame you want… which I think adds a tremendous amount to joy of ownership 🤠 it can be more expensive but it is so worth it! And just like you mentioned, you can find deals on components if you are patient 👍

Your slow, piece-by-pice builds are an important part of what makes your channel so cool and exciting (and relatable) to follow:)! I'd say all the vlog content that comes out of that easily makes up for the extra cost. And yeah, it also makes your bikes look so damn good!

My oldest full-sus has now done over 5,000 miles & a million feet of descending/climbing with the only original parts being the frame, fork & stem. The majority of changes were because I broke and/or wore out the originals (and often their replacements). But, when wanting a new bike it makes better sense IME to buy the one nearest to the spec and then just swap out odds/sods rather than building from scratch.

I never had a complete new bike till I got the Norton, always got second hand and upgraded it as parts broke or as I needed more capabilities. For jumping you kind of want something that just works, and you know is solid. Square taper bb was the part that I was expecting to switch but it has been problem free. Once you have all the bits from another bike after you break your frame though you can totally get whatever you want!

I have a YT jeffsy. $2300ish in 2020 when I bought it. At this point the only stock parts are the wheels. Now I did upgrade over time but. Had I bought the $500-$700 frame and all my current parts I'd have saved money overall. To be fair, pedals and a non-SX sram derailleur were probably the only actual necessities for upgrading...but what's the fun in that?

aside from a few pretty solid budget stock mtbs, most steel hardtails come as frame only! and the ones that don’t are pretty expensive somehow, around 4k for a decent build kit (like from niner) and buying used with mtb especially is tricky, as you go a few years back and 29er geo gets weird, and mtb parts get kinda trashed. if you’re lucky you’ll get a nice rolling frame and working suspension fork with wheels you’ll eventually upgrade and drivetrain components that will need refreshed within a year

The N7 is a screaming deal at the moment, but I got my T7 for $2kUS around the same time as your Marino and they're probably a bit closer in purpose. That said, as nice as the Polygons are there a few places that can use some attention, namely wheelset and cockpit. But especially wheelset. Which in my blue sky thinking the wheelset and fork get moved over to a Norton frame and a new fork and NukeProof wheelset go to the T7, but I'm rambling now. Point being I guess it's all relative when building up a bike instead of buying one as more than likely things will be changed out to better suit tastes and that initial buying isn't the end of the spending.

The worst case of this for me was building my fatbike frame from tubes, then piece-mealing the parts. In the end I ended up with a bike that looks super cool, and I'm very proud of, but has geometry that let's call "experimental" (makes me feel better than saying bad); and I spent more cash than I would've on a very nice new fatbike made by, you know, professionals. I did learn a lot though, so it's worth it.

custom builds do cost more for a complete build of course. but you are creating less waste by just ditching parts that are either not that great or just take up room. also i think building it up helps you learn how the bike works. last point, if you build frame up also you can learn how to get good deals for parts and not have to get sucked into brand new part cost, lots of used parts that are in good condition.. great deals out there.

Hahaha, 100%. After years (decades :S ) of rebuilding and "upgrading" bikes I got the opportunity to build a bike up from a new frame when Nashbar had a huge blowout on NOS frames, I got a nice frame in a color scheme I really liked for $75 US... (a similar frame would have run $900-$1100 retail at the time) After assembling with scrounged, used, Demo/NOS, and a bit of new....It ended up costing over $300 more than a mostly slightly better 2 year old "new" clearance bike... and that's when I started using Excel to price out bike builds! Though to be fair, a couple hundred dollars of upgrades/changes over the years it is now the road bike of my 21 year old self's dreams* (at least how I remember them at 55, lol) very fast and really comfortable over long distances (my long is 60-120 miles, YMMV). * Schwinn Fastback Comp frame in blue/black/pearl white, Lemond carbon forks (Lemond, Carbon, :D nuff said...), FSA SL-K carbon crankset 50/39 (oooh, aaah, carbon and external bearings :P ), the remaining drivertrain and brakeset is 10s Ultegra 6600/6700 in polished aluminum, Salsa Cowbell handlebars, WTB Speed V saddle (was my favorite saddle, even over Brooks, until Ergon got into the game), Mavic Aksium wheels with bladed spokes (oooo, bladed radially laced spokes :D ), Crank Brothers Candy pedals ( I ride everything in MTB shoes, I value being able to safely walk off the bike, say getting coffee or a snack in a market with slippery tiled floors). Continental GP4000II in 25c (not 28c because 25c barely fits) and an 11-36 10s cassette via a GS derailleur and Wolftooth Roadlink. Weighs in at ~17.5lbs/7.9 kg.

Twice now I’ve gotten complements on my rebuilt ‘95 Rockhopper and I’d be lying if that didn’t make me feel damn good. Like “justifies the entire cost which was more than just getting an objectively better bike like a Topstone” levels of good. Also I look at the bike and it just looks awesome and it’s all mine and nobody else on the planet has one exactly like it. Absolutely worth it. And then, of course, there’s my “boring” Litespeed with boring 105 5800 parts which I still love. The heart is fickle I suppose.

I actually saved money by building my bike from the frame up. I couldn't buy the frameset of the bike or had a close enough speced bike as I wanted it so I would've bought the lowest spec and changed literally almost every part on it. But I was patient and saw a frame sold second hand. I probably saved 1000 bucks compared to the other tactic.

Just because it’s cheaper from a 100% cost basis doesn’t mean you can’t save by building from scratch for instance I only change certain parts of a build at once usually when something wears out. New frame or new wheels maybe a new fork every few years vs a full new bike every few years in the long term does make financial sense. I have had a set of 50% off on sale hope brakes that lasted 7 years with 1 rebuild and many sets of pads, replacing pads is unavoidable. As long as you get full use and rebuild when you can, learning to work on bikes yourself verse paying a shop makes the best satisfaction and financial case

Or buy a lightly used older bike and use it until the parts fail and keep upgrading. Pretty much the same as a frame build-up, except you can ride it immediately w/o sinking a boat load into components at one time. The key is getting a bike that hasn't been beat to hell as a starter. You have done this many times on the channel, so this isn't news to you. Lol. My 2013 Stumpy F/S 29er has a 2023 RS Pike Select 150 and 2023 Deluxe Ultimate, Renthal carbon bars, Sram carbon cranks (stock), converted to 1X, PNW Dropper, and the bike is great. Light, nimble, jibs, and is plenty stable. I have had it for 4 years and I am in at just over $4K ... pretty much a complete rebuild except for the bearings and wheels. I live in OH. I don't need a LLS geo; my 67 HTA and shorter wheel base is fine for the punchy, hilly terrain. Good vid as usual. The con is it took me 4 years to get the bike how I wanted it.
