We've (Velo Domestique) (in Bournemouth) just started dealing Bullitts and have experience with Omniums for a few years so happy to help you out. That being said it's pretty well known that Jamie at SBC is the man for Bullitts and if you can get up there easily it's well worth speaking to them.
We'll have a belt drive Alfine test bike in the next week, you're welcome to come down and take it for a spin
£2500 gives you all the options you could need really so I'd say it's worth waiting

I’m on the south coast, Fareham. But was considering going to SBC cycles to get the frame set. It looks like they’re the closest dealer along with others in London.
I was considering a gearing for 32:16, the classic mountain bike ss gearing as a starting point, but could gear down from that. But I think I’ve been persuaded otherwise now.
In terms of the front wheel rim had assumed you just used the most hard core BMX rim you could find ?
There have been a couple of Bullitts come up on eBay in the last 6 month. The last one which looked like it was in need of some tlc went for £1600, you also had to go to Glasgow to get it.
I don’t need the bike until September ish so I think my budget will grow to a more realistic £2500
