I need some knowledgeable input.
A friend is having a custom steel frame built and is very unsure of groupset and finishing kit options. She is not really sure what she wants which is difficult. She wants the bike to have racy componentry but the geometry is also relaxed for touring.
The bike is cobalt blue. She is also having the issue with crank length as the frame builder is suggesting she needs a 155mm crank. I'm not sure why this is as she's 5'6 so not too short. Anyone offer any insight?
Could someone suggest some nice groupset options apart from the usual modern SRAM/shimano/campagnolo stuff if there is anything else.
Sorry if this is very vague.
Thanks
