If you like Campag parts that will up the cost considerably.. you have any Custom frame builders around you?
getting fussy about front end geometries is past the buy it, ride it and call it good that most people are satisfed with.
That's assuming that you can find a bike with the pieces you want. For the folding bike I was looking at could build it to my exact spec for only £100 more than stock (and that was because I chose a higher spec build that weghed about 800g less).
Campag is also pretty reasonable in the UK.
I know I'm being picky, but I truth be told I love my bike, have had it for around 4-5 years now so subsequently have gotten to know it pretty well, and there are a couple of changes I'd like to make. I see nothing wrong with that.
