Couldn't be bothered to wait for stock availability for a matched groupset so finally built this up with what I had and what I could get from eBay (and here). The Nitto UI-12/31.8mm compact bar combo is a revelation - so much stiffer/more comfortable than what I'm used to. Happy to just put some miles on it as it stands, apologies (no - really) to those who find the cheapo Shimano 8speed and the mismatched crankset/brakes offensive. There will be some minor changes - a GS caged rd, and probably a different wheelset.
Routing the cables through the AeroA bars was a PITA.
Just a fraction over 10Kg.
