Yeah... fair point, 'tis only a Pomp. And that money could be better spent.
Thanks for all the advice. I was impulsive and already bought the frame last year so will persevere with the build. Just going to keep an eye on the classifieds and have a rummage through my parts bin for basic components so I can bring the total cost down.
@svendsvin / @Xavonseine – is the bolt-on cog the best way to go? Or SS MTB hub? How about DMR or Surly?
Well, the Alfine chainset (single chainguard) gives a pretty defined 42.7mm CL so I'd base rear hub options around working with that if you plan on using it with the chainguard in place (no idea as to CL with the guard removed and chainring mounted to to outside).
