So, I'm looking for an Athena groupset. Shiny bikes is the cheapest I've found the set for, at 526 quid. Planet X has the set for 500 quid, but only in 172.5mm cranks, so it'd be 75 quid more to get 175mm, and they'd be carbon.
I've bought stuff from Planet X/On-one before. They're a bit useless in a whole bunch of ways, but the service is pretty good and quick. Shiny sounds like it'd be a mistake.
If I go the Athena route, is 50 quid worth better service + carbon cranks? I don't really want carbon cranks, but...
(or can anyone magically find it for less elsewhere?)
