Have you looked in the classifieds for parts? You'll find that you are spending hardly as much for used parts. I try to avoid buying new stuff at all costs because as soon as you use it, it loses the majority of its value
I'm using the cycle to work scheme, so I can spend £1000 and get 40% off, so likely a better deal than used parts with the warranty etc
