Looks good and I dont see any compatibility issues. I'm using the Ryet Saddle on my road bike, but I'm not sure if I'd go with it for a TT position.

Ah didn't even consider that thank you!

Side note, My measurements:
Inseam 81.5cm
Shoulder to wrist bone 53cm
Height 173cm

I'm not sure if i should get S or M? Any idea?

Hey all, I'm piecing together the parts for my first ever TT bike - I've done so much research (thanks to this forum) but still not 100% sure of compatibility and whether or not I'm getting the most bang for my buck?

Appreciate any advice on the below build.
Total Price $4,644 (AUD).
Use case will primarily be for local sprints/olympics and 70.3s and the rare (maybe 1 every couple of years 140.6s)

Keen to know:

    Any compatibility issues or just poor decisions
    Any easy/cheap upgrades or downgrades (note, I want SRAM wireless shifting so pretty set on that)
    Missing any FUNDAMENTAL components


Once I buy everything, plan is to have it professionally assembled by a shop who offer full build (hopefully they'll let me watch - i'd love to learn, and im not comfortable doing things like brake installations, bleeding, cable cutting etc.)

All prices are AUD.
