I have 2 bikes. I only need 1. Help?!?!

Here's the deal. I have two current bikes and due to unforseen circumstances one has to go. I have narrowed my choices down to the following options. Any insight is appreciated. First, let me introduce the bikes:

The race/training rig - Yellow

9 speed 105
Williams wheels
Lot's of miles and several crashes

The "other' rig - Pink

DA 8700
Psimet Wheels
Never ridden - just built a few weeks ago and was waiting to tune it up
  • Option #1: Keep "yellow" and sell "pink" as a complete bicycle.
  • Option #2: Put higher end parts from "pink" onto "yellow" and sell "pink" as a frame/fork
  • Option #3: Sell "yellow" (not worth much) and keep "pink"
  • Option #4: Put higher end parts from "pink" onto "yellow" including full carbon fork from "pink" -sell "pink" as frame only
  • Option #5: Keep bikes and find comething else to sell

FWIW I'm leaning to #2 since I race and alloy is cheaper to replace than carbon. Thoughts welcome.

Cheers

Rob
