Bikes: '96 Litespeed Catalyst, '05 Litespeed Firenze, '06 Litespeed Tuscany, '20 Surly Midnight Special, All are 3x10. It is hilly around here!
A Dura ace equipped bike at that price sounds pretty reasonable, assuming it's really in good condition.

DA 9 or 10?
Couple of pals of mine recently got brand spanking new CAAD8s with full Ultegra 10 speed for $1200.

This one is 9. My size, nice other parts, but I would need to change the crank out to different crank arm size... not sure how much extra dough that would take after selling the pulled part.
The price of replacement parts and chains for 10 is a little unappetizing. I also wonder whether the chains are a lot more fragile...
