So this was my first ever build, cost me around $100 all together with some help from Craigslist, friends, and the asshole who stole my back rim.

Frame:
No idea, bought for $15

Fork/Headset:
$5 fork from swapmeet, came with headset

Crankset/Bottom Bracket:
No name, came with the frame

Pedals:
Free from friend

Drivetrain/Cog/Chainring/Chain:
48T Chainring, 16T Cog

Handlebars/Stem:
Bought both off Craigslist for $15

Saddle/Seatpost:
Took off my other bike

Brakes:
Came with the handlebars and stem for $15 off Craigslist

Front Wheel/Hub/Tire:
Free from friend

Rear Wheel/Hub/Tire:
Bought as a pair for $60 with tubes and tires when my old one got stolen

More Info:
For some reason even though this bike is just random parts put together, I've grown attached to it since I ride it practically everyday since I don't have a car while at school. I was given the opportunity to change out the frame for a lighter one, but I just couldn't do it. Though pouring rain and long rides, this bike has held through.
