Old Groupsets
Does anyone know where I could find groupsets that are either NOS or like-new? I'd love to upgrade the 105 set on my C'Dale to something a little better, it's a seven speed Cannondale. I've tried Ebay and Cleveland has about 3 cyclists total, so Craigslist is limited only to kids bikes.

My bike has NGS, but buying a new group is tough when the common ones (C-Record, etc.) are expensive.
Just keep trying craigslist I guess, and maybe go to some garage sales. It took me two weeks of checking craigslist several times a day to find an older bike. Be persistent
