To increase the quality of my bike and reduce cost:
- Looked for used parts in good condition, I checked Ebay and Craigslist for weeks
- I reused compatible parts from the Cannondale, although most parts were not compatible
- I sold left over parts on Ebay
- I looked for sales on JensonUSA, ChainReactionCycles, and Amazon
