Hey all.
Long-time lurker, first NBD post. I've been dreaming of an S-Works for years but could never bring myself to swallow the insane price tag for a new one off the floor.
So, I decided to go the 'built-not-bought' route and hunt for deals to piece one together myself. After a few months of scouring and wrenching, here she is. I'm super stoked on how it turned out, and I managed to keep it all under $3,400.
For anyone curious, here's the damage:
Frame: ~1,110Wheels: 1,110 Wheels: ~1,110Wheels: 875
Power Meter & Carbon Crankset: ~415RestofGroupset: 415 Rest of Groupset: ~415RestofGroupset: 695
Saddle: ~140Handlebar: 140 Handlebar: ~140Handlebar: 140
All in for about $3,375.
Honestly, building it up myself was half the fun, and it rides even better than I imagined. Total rocket ship.
