Get a used Italian steel bike, with mid to hi range Campagnolo components, ergo shifters. Shimano is fine, however Italian bikes deserve Campy. SLX steel from the 1990's works great. DeRosa, Pinarello, Masi, Marinoni, etc. Fitment is of utmost importance.
With this strategy you will end up with twice the bike, for half the cost. You will as well have a bike that will probably appreciate in value.
