Best Price for Karate Monkey Frameset?

[WEBERTIME]

Hey foks how are you all? I have been looking at getting onto a 29" and the Karate Monkey seems perfect for me, I have done some searching and found that most every place is $430. Anyone out there know of any deals? (coupons/shipping/used/etc.) thanks for all the help!
Size L or XL (I'm 6'5" 34-35" inseam, longish arms)

I would also consider a shop that will build the bike for you or
at least do some of the setup (chasing the BB and cutting the fork.)

I obtained my KM L from www.excelsports.com in Boulder Colorado.

Maybe I am wrong, but I tried to build it myself, but their price for
a complete build always seemed less than buying the parts (and I had
nothing to reuse).

PS over on the 29" forum there is nothing but praise for the KM and
I am enthralled by mine.

Yes, bike shops get better deals on parts, so it will cost less to buy complete.

I have a old Falcon Frame (yes english bike builder from yore) and keep
trying to get it road worthy but it is hard to work the numbers and not
say "just buy something on sale" But would be a nice winter project
as some sort of cross-bike thing.
