You mentioned that the new 105 crank is almost as good as the Ultegra. Who knows.. maybe I will go 11speed ultegra 2X
Be advised that the cost of the drive train is going to be more as Shimano is preventing any of the UK discount bike sellers (Chain Reaction and the rest) from selling to US customers. That means you will need to purchase them stateside at a higher cost. The new policy started with the new year. The reviews on the new 105 series is quite positive and function is the same a the Ultegra series. The only difference is a few grams so that would save a few pennies. I really like the wheetset but wondering about Bike NashBar's future. Good Luck
