what site (that ships to usa) currently has the best price for this groupset? so far i've found merlin for 1500ish but it doesn't include the rx derailleur (just the regular gs)
trying to piece together an ultegra di2 2x hydro groupset w/ the rx-805gs RD. has anyone found a low priced euro dealer that ships to USA?
did you need to add links to your chain to go from 32 to 36?
