The money I'm saving on the frame will go to components.
Right on! I was in the same (almost) boat - I was ready to pull the trigger on Jeff Lyon's L'Avecaise but with exchange rate, shipping and customs + parts it became too much for now. Still on my list as one of the "dream" bikes but I am OK to wait.
Roadini saved me a ton, I already had lots of parts and only had to get a few small things.
