But no brakes :(
Surely you don't need bling brakes straight away. Get something cheap as a stopgap, so you can have the bike up & running?

Sunrace 12s shifting set comes in around £200, and the 11-50 rear cassette looks mad, although I suppose that’s the price without cranks... But then again, more gears more fun (apparently)
EDIT: And the Cassette fits a standard free hub body!

sounds like a good plan.
get some deore m615s, second hand they're only like £30 for a pair. I really liked mine.

another vote for 30t up front, 11-40 sunrace at the back
never wished for a tougher gear, riding this unloaded or laden down on my hardtail for many years
