TT build

Hello everyone, I’ve been looking to buy myself a tt bike for a little while now and i’ve fallen in the rabbit hole of chinese carbon. Since I have never owned this type of bike most people advice would be to buy a used one, but I have not found anything in my budget in my region yet so this doesn’t really work for now. So I have a couple of questions regarding this build and I’m open to all suggestions and comments regarding this topic.

The build

Frame: Winow TT-119 with the hb052 cockpit
Groupset: LTWOO eRX-TT groupset
Crank: Shimano 105 R7100 52-36
Cassette: 105 CS-R7001 11-34
Wheels: Elitewheels ENT 2.0 ?
Tires: GP5000
Saddle: Ryet

I have the entire bike in my aliexpress cart and the total comes out to 3661,65 $ cad

Questions

  1. Should I wait to find a TT on marketplace ?
  2. Is this bike actually good ahahah ?
  3. The wheels is the only parts I haven’t look that much into, are they worth it ?
  4. With that price in my mind, is it actually a good deal compared to the likes of some Canyon, Trek, Cervélo etc ?
  5. Should I just buy a complete bike like the JAVA Vega ?

Also, I know that building the entire thing is complicated, but I like the idea of building my own race bike and I have a lot of tools already.
