thats the problem. There are so many components out there, how is one even supposed to tell which they will like better anyway besides trying them out one by one? I certainly don't have the cash, or time to do that. All I can go by is what I know is at least decent, and then if something is bothering me after awhile I can upgrade it. I only know if I like a frame by comparing it to what I have already riden, and I mean for a few days, not for 5 mins at a shop, which is not that many. I don't really thinks its possible for someone to get their perfect bike on their first shot, but I think I can get close.
