Hi all,
I tried to find something along these lines but havent really found anything so here I am.
Background:
I got a new frame at an amazing price. Couldnt pass it up but hopefully this will help me get back into training for next year. I recently sold the tri bike and decided to focus on short course only which is why I went and got a new aero bike road frame to build up. I love my TCR but just wanted something more fun to ride. This is my third build and love working on the bike from the bottom up. I always like to do these builds as cheap as possible by looking for deals on used parts (firm believer that I dont need brand new parts if they are in good shape). Budget for me isnt buying lower groupos. Its more of a challenge for me to see if I can keep my project under a certain price.
With that, I am at a crossroads as to which groupo I would want. Its between DI2 and mechanical Ultegra. Obvs DI2 will cost more BUT I wanted to hear what people have to say between the two. Is it the headache of finding deals on the parts?
Thanks for the help in advance!
