Which is better?

[lostinflyz]

i got an old VFR (and cheap) off nicksta that wasnt track ready and its cost me a very sweet fortune to get up and running and thats without many fun bits. Its alot of work too. Remember too alot of road bikes have little bits and pieces that get neglected over time and while on the road its not so important on the track it is. And some of those things can be expensive. very expensive

Cheep way is to buy one already setup

Expensive way is to build your own.

Just remember even a setup one will require some work to personalise it, ie suspension setup for your weight and ability

Fully agree with this.
