Danger Dan got me thinking...
I just bought a new 2010 Tarmac Expert SL and need to unload my Blue AC1.
The original idea was to sell the whole bike, but now I'm wondering if I should just part it out. The bike is currently in pieces, since I just received the warrantied frame. I'd have to build up the bike to sell as a whole and at that I'd have to stick a set of wheels on since the Psimet wheels will be used on the Tarmac. The choice would be a lightly used set of Ksyrium Elites or the Equipes off the Tarmac.
Part of my problem is Blue is a pretty unkown company up in Canada and I have to assume my buyer would be from the US. Shipping a full bike across the border will be expensive, a frame, fork and seatpost, not so much.
It's funny, I have the frame in the stand right now waiting for the build to start...
Decisions, decisions...
