I also have 2 other carbon fiber bikes, a Fuji Pro and a Specialized Roubaix so I don't really need this bike anymore.

But...

To me, this bike is a thing of beauty and I want to keep it just to admire it. Yeah, that's crazy talk, but aren't all serious cyclists a little crazy? On the other hand, I think I could get about $1,000.00 for it (not that I need the money) and someone else could get some of the same enjoyment from it that I used to get.

So, what would you do?
I've cleaned house on several bikes, boat load of parts, a smart trainer, 2 bike racks, and other stuff bike related. Been nice to clean house on stuff I was no longer using. In this time of parts shortages, ebay bids were higher than normal.
