>>1536790>-do you have bike specific and quality tools?>-do you have time to put on that?>-do you have space or a dedicated place to assembly things comfy?>-do you have the knowledge to do it?if the answers for all those questions are "yes", THEN the question "Prebuild vs building one yourself?" depends on market prices of prebluids and spare parts. OTHERWISE, it will not be cheaper.
why can that be cheap if "yes" to all those questions?
-good tools will never be a thing to regret from but youhave to expend money on that
-without knowledge, you can shit the selection parts, choosing thing will not comply between them. not only can lose money, but time.
-without an appropiate space and light, it will be a pain in the ass assembly shits. just ask you parents or gf/bf for the living room for 3 evenings of exclusive use, that will be enough.
>Does it actually save money?depends on many things as i said.
>And how hard is it to actually find parts that fit together?easy task for me: dont mix brands. sure there are some minor compatibilities, but long and lazy to explain them, just dont mix brands, shimano with shimano, compagnolo with compagnolo, an so.
Also, pic related helps you mixing transmision shit without wasting money if needed. you will need to read this
https://www.bikingpoint.es/blog/shimano-vs-sram-guia-de-equivalencias/ (in spanish, translate it or whatever) to know meaning of models name brands, just to educate yourself in order to spend the money with inteligence. search for sunrace and microshift catalogs and shimano-sram-microshift-sunrace equivalence tables , they have really cool stuff, you can save money on these guys.
