I think it's a pretty good idea to have a look at the complete Deore group set's you can find floating around at around 300€, sure it's "only" a 2x10 speed but they do come with brakes (no rotors though).

Long time reader, not that regular of a poster.
Felt like I should share my "MGOOF journey" over the years.
First up is a Jan Janssen Sallanches Luxe from -89 built out of columbus cromor fitted with a 10s record group that built back in 2011.
Had that for a while, tried out carbon (Ridley Damocles) and then went on to a Gazelle Champion Mondial AB from -92 built from Reynolds 531c, same record group set and with both classy and race:y wheels as an option. Now the year is 2015.
And finally ended up with my Somec Mercury from -95 built from Columbus Genius tubing. Yeah you guessed right: same wheels and same group I kept from that Jan Janssen from the "beginning". Tips in at just under 9kg's with the Zipp 404's and a smidge over with the TB14's. This has been my road bike since I built it up in 2017 and I don't ever see me getting rid of it. It's just a magical bike in som many ways <3
