>Many different metrics of performance that must be consideredWhich you must also consider when buying a preassembled bike so you know what your bike can do
>Requires a set of toolsThe vast majority of which you'll need anyway to repair your shit when it brakes or to replace parts when they get worn out
>Many ways to fuck installing partsUnless you're retarded, how? The parts nowadays and how they come togheter are made so that even idiots can work with them. From showing you how to install shit in the instruction manual, what torque slapped on the products themselves to step by step videos on yt.
