It's a bit more complicated than that...
Does anyone have any current info on the time taken for a bespoke build?
I suspect my 8-speed will be consigned to a corner of the garage until I get more time and energy and manage to link up with an engineering adviser, and in the meantime I need something to commute on. I'm inclining towards an M2L or an S2L if my Brooks briefcase would fit, so could get something off the shelf from Evans. But at the very least I'd need to replace the seatpost for an extended one, and I'd very quickly want to put a Brooks saddle and a dynohub on it. If I'm going to do that it might as well be a custom build to save money and hassle. But if that route is going to mean I've got nothing to ride until May it's not worth it.
