Alfine are £62.66 delivered from Rosebikes, given that they have single-ring specific chainrings, a snazzy chainguard and a Tiagra BB included, that has to be a premium worth paying over Sora (if it even is a premium, as I don't think Sora includes the BB)
That's what I'm going for. 45T should be plenty, and nicely stealth in black with the chainguard.

Still undecided about the rear hub. I night just SS it for the time being using my Boardman wheelset. I'm hearing some worrying things about clearances for 6-bolt rotors though, which might force my hand.
