This bad boy was identical to the T-Mobile frameset, just with different paint... Came out in Oz in '06 with full 7800 and Ksyrium ES, was 7.1kg and cost $8.5k. You could get the frameset in Europe with pretty much the same paintjob but with T-Mobile on the top tube instead of this poxy Arial font junk, that was €2.5k...
This one is a bit on the large side for me, but I picked it up a few years ago for $600; was just gonna strip and flip it, but it's such a weapon. These days it's Di2 only, with a full internal loom I DIYed, and 9000 except for the nicer 9100 levers and way cooler 7400 rear brake, comes in at 6.1kg with the Caden tubs. Oh yeah, I sold the 7800 off it for $560, lol.
Been looking for one in my size pretty much since I got this, and late last year found one out in the sticks for $1k, in incredible nick. Reckon I could get $800 for that group - no crank scuffs or RD road rash! Although now I've gotta do this Di2 hack job all over again.
Looking forward to it though; gonna be a tad lighter and a whole lot sexier in my size.
