  • Well… it was always my dream (track) frameset so getting rid is probably a bit too harsh

    I put it online expecting it to take months to sell but then it took 36hrs lol

    The frameset was an opportunity a year ago and within that year I made the perfect build out if it (for my standards).

    at this point I always start to think about the use of the finished project. And with the frame being used ~5 times in a year it is a bit too much budget resting in the basement.

    Also, I wanted some (financial) flexibility with all the saeco framesets lining up and having the ambition to make a kick-ass mgoof next year

    (That said, note that some years ago I decided to spend money on bikes only from money off of bikes and not let that hobby affect my salary/savings. So with this thumb rule in mind I think it made sense to let it go)

    @kjlem before I got the 496 I had no trackbike for a year and as I was not happy without a trackbike.

    So yea… there will be definitely something coming. Depends a bit on whether I will sell the wheels and crankset, too. If yes, probably steel (njs?), if not, maybe 2000-is aero (alloy)? Open for inspo :-))

    Probably a bit more budget friendly than the LOOK, lets see :-)

  • Kick-ass Saeco mgoof

    That sounds good too!

  • spend money on bikes only from money off of bikes and not let that hobby affect my salary/savings

    All my bikes are funded this way but your pot must be a lot larger than mine! Sad that you're moving on the Look but if it opens up new possibilities then i'm all for it. If the Black DA ring becomes available i'd be interested pending tooth count.
