Hi all.
Looking at building a Ribble bike online to spend my cycle to work voucher on ( so a grand budget ). Wanting 105 group set, but can't decide either to go for better wheels (possibly fulcrum 5s ) and basic finishing kit, or better finishing kit and something like fulcrum 7s. Would there be a major difference between the wheels?
Any advice, please help. (Ps, probably be the 7005 sportive frame if that helps. )
Thanks.

Personally, I'd go 1st for one of the carbon frames, then the wheels (ie not the really basic ones) and then whatever groupset the budget allows. I wouldn't give any thought to finishing kit upgrades. I suspect there isn't enough difference between Fulcrum 5s and 7s to matter that much - so 7s and a slightly better groupset is probably no bad choice. That leaves you with a nicer basic bike that will justify properly better summer wheels as a future upgrade.Faster than a tent.......0
