What are they looking for in the system and why 9 speed? If they have certain parts already what parts do they have and if they don't have any parts, why 9 speed again? 9 speed is getting quite old now, the old stuff being still quite functional but new stuff going further down in quality and not being worth much. I would go at least 10 speed or get some Shimano Cues and get a really nice quality budget groupset that is more modern and compatible with modern parts.
