Pinarello Prologo
I just picked this up off craigslist and I think I got a good deal. Unfortunately, the bike or at least parts of it will have to go back to CL or ebay cause I'm unemployed and flipping for cash right now.
I'd like some help identifying the year and a value of the bike as a whole and the value of some of the components. I found the '87 and '89 catalogs online but they didn't have this color scheme.
What I'd love to do is sell the race/tt specific parts, but hold on to the frame, so I can build to fit my riding style (street/commuting/weekend rides) when I have the cash to play with it. But if it's more valuable as a unit, then I'll have to sell it that way. Would it ever be possible to have matched wheels on it, both 700c or 26"?
Here's what I know about the bike:
It was traded between three friends who raced it and it has been sitting in a garage for the past 5 years. It has some wear, scratches and nicks;the worst is on the left side of the bottom bracket, and the white pinarello decals don't look stock.
Shimano 600 rear derailleur
Shimano 600 rear hub (or cassette, not sure)
Shimano 600 headset
Shimano unknown front derailleur
Shimano 105 shifters
Shimano 105 front hub
Nisi laser 26" front tubular rim
Stronglight chainrings
Sampson Cranks
Campagnolo Athena brakes
Profile one piece areo bars
CMXL? 700c rear carbon disc tubular
Velocity deep V 26" tubular rim with bladed spokes and an unmarked hub (spare)
Thanks for the help!

based on the 6208 600 parts (if original) this is an 1987 or 1988 bike. You cannot put equal size wheels on this and it would be a very uncomfortable bike for commuting and longer rides...

I don't think you'll find that you can ever turn this frame into a comfortable commuter, so you'll have to keep that in mind whether you decide to part this out or sell complete.

Nothing has overly high intrinsic value.
FD: $5
RD: $10-15
Freewheel: $12-15
Brakes calipers: $30
Headset: $15
105 front wheel: $20
other front wheel: $30
Rear wheel: no clue
shift levers: $30
Seatpost: $5
Crankset: no clue
Frameset: No clue but I'll say $250. Funny bikes are obsolete in regards to TT/triathlons therefore it only has historic value.
