Cav is a bad idea then in general.
Lost around 300k gold with my 2h cav in the last months. With constant x5 I manage to lose only a little gold, without x5 its just a gold sink.

light cav is no problem money wise imo.  get a lance,  courser,  medium-light armor,  a shield and a shortened spear.  youll have fun.

alternatevly a desert horse as 1h cav.

you should break even with a set up like that.

I find 2h cav with light armor and rouncey cheap and effective. Longsword would be the highest upkeep I would pay, second would be the rouncey. Investing least 2 points into shield would help when fighting against archer heavy teams.

This setup with the build 18/18 works fine but it's what you choose to use. If you don't want to pay for the longsword, shorten military scythe works good on cav too.

Lancer cav = cheapest and best cav. Best against inf, other cav + cheap horse

1h cav, no point in trying if you are not just an inf with few points in riding or NW veteran.

Did the patch change much to the gameplay of cavalry?
