@Matisse
anyway, slept on it and this is probably going to go down like this:
fit the R1000 with the Ultregra 6800 gruppo, choices here are:
1) inline thomson or setback zipp seatpost
2) new rs101 wheelset, or stick with the rad ritchey aero wheels.
Then, harvest the r1000 for parts, probably brakes/RD / shifters and saddle for the R200, with the aim being a 1x9 commuter.
Choice here is stick with the Ultegra chainset, or fit a more hill friendly 34t compatible chainset, which given that bristol is pretty hilly, is most likely the way i'll go.
