thats a good price [ as long as the quality is ok ]   i think mec will agree when i say building your own frame usually takes about three times longer than you think it will and costs twice as much as you had planned

[mec]

you are right.

 I got a question..
 The fixturing does not appear exceedingly rigid. If the frame ends up a bit "off", can you straighten it out as you would with most frames ?
