So I missed out on that ti Omnium, I think I’m going to regret that for some time. So I’m looking at the pre build Omniums, but the specs look a bit shit and expensive at £2060.
So I’ve been pricing up a self build as follows
Omnium Frame - £970
Xt group including brakes/ 1x chainset(no rotors! Wtf) £449
Rotors - £56
Xt hubs -£54
Rims (Archetype rear, bmx rim £40 ?) -£100
Wheel build / spokes - £130
Sundry expenses front tyres etc - £100
Bar, stem, saddle, seatpost, I’ve got
That gives a total of £1859
Am I missing anything? The frame comes with headsets (I think)
I like the idea of building it up with with a road / cx drive chain but that looks like it would increase the cost by at least £300, road disc brakes are expensive aren’t they!
