• Dare I open up a can of worms and ask what groupset you all prefer? I might be building a winter/gravel/off road bike beginning of next year. I've got Sram on the BMC, I had Sram on my Rondo and the Focus CX... I think the last time I used Shimano is when I used to mountain bike... and that was because it was the only real groupset around. I'm not even thinking about an electronic groupset and up to a point, was thinking of Klampers or Yokozuna brakes.

    Frame is looking like it's gonna be a Mason Bokeh

  • Had Ultegra R8000 with 46/36 and RX rear derailleur for ages and it worked great. XT 11-40 cassette worked well and gave pretty decent range.

    Wife has identical setup on a small frame and it still works well.

    Seen some R8000 groups going for good prices and looks nicer than GRX.
