| While 
              looking around at our local bike store my son who is 13 and was 
              looking to move up from his Bianchi Junior spied a 51cm Mazi single 
              speed for $725, but there were a few changes that we wanted to make 
              and they would pushed it up to about $800. With that in mind we 
              peaked around on craigslist and found this frame and fork for $200. 
              With some parts that we had laying around the house and from our 
              local used bike store as well as Bicycle Odyssey, we built the bike 
              up for $568.  Here 
              are some key features: 51cm Ichiwata 022 Bianchi frame and fork
 40cm SOMA urban pursuit handle bars
 Dia-Compe reverse aero TT brake leveres
 Modolo brakes 61inch gear wheel
 Assos Bottom bracket (we had to borrow the tool so if some one is 
              willing to part with one we will gladly accept it)
