So explain it to the customer and let them decide what they want to spend their money on. I ride an old Raleigh Sports beater with a brand new Brooks saddle that cost more than 5 times what the bike did, so I guess I am an idiot?
BTW nothing says the parts I put an old beater bike today won't end up on a new build tomorrow
