Been curious about Alibaba for my latest budget build. Its a 2013 Focus Cayo Evo Di2 new frame i got for $158 on ebay. I nice wheels that would move over, and the frame included a serviceable seatpost & stem, BB, headset hardware. Nothing fancy but new OEM stuff.
So i need handlebars, saddle, pedals and the Di2 kit (likely full Ultegra 6870 kit from Merlin when its available for $1050 again.) I would be psyched to have this full 11spd build under $1500, for what was a 10spd $4300 bike. That's the goal right now.
They have a chinese Deda Presa compact bar that looks like a Superleggera clone and a Selle San Marco Superleggera carbon rail saddle clone that quite looks the part. Both which would look quite nice.
