this is stupid. he says he doesnt want a heavy bike, which would be cheaper, and then pay money down the line for newer parts. if you get an expensive, high end complete, the parts wont last a lot longer than some really cheap ones. and no matter what, you'll end up putting extra money into your bike. if you dont want to pay more later, then dont even start riding. my bike was only $250 when i bought it, but since then ive put another $300 into it in parts, and hours upon hours of my own time. and the $300 isnt counting all the money i put into tubes. i go through a lot of those.
