Thanks that is a great looking bike. Have to say very jealous to see you have the saddle and found some Rolf's. I looked for ages for some before finding a pair of Ksyrium heliums! I am leaning towards shiny and 6700 at moment plus I cant afford the carbon wheels!!
Thanks billygoat8.
Very nice bike!
Oh nice, just got myself one of these too the other day. 5200 from 2001 with what I believe is all original, 6500 ultegra with all Icon Graphite finishing kit and USPS saddle. Came on some wheels but I've managed to source some Rolf Vectors (although bit tired) literally 20minutes away from where the bike was.
Only gave it a quick clean w new cables as well as new bartape.
Planning to keep it as it is bar for maybe upgrading to 6600 for 2*10 and bigger cassette.
Maybe some carbon deep wheels for the lookz.
Will be a lovely addition to my Cannondales.
As for your build I would go:
A) 6500/6600 or higher and all shiny (polished) finishing kit
B) modern gruppo on all black/black shiny finishing kit (no logos) and 50/60mm carbon wheels.
Would be rad in both scenarios. Good luck.
