Really good question…
I have two saeco project pending at the moment:
Viper red Team Bike
- i think i have all the parts together, even nos bartape and tyres
- still need to refurbish the spinergys (polish brake surfaces, polish carbon, change freehub, apply decals)
- but somehow I feel reluctant to put spinergys on the 2000 frame set where they used ksyriums
- currently I am honestly considering to sell all the parts and just keep the frame for neo-retro
SAECO USA
- i had all the parts together in january
- But the super record group from NL was in a 7/10 state and I didnt feel this was appropriate to put on such a clean build
-since then I havent been motivated to source a new group - bottom line: frameset, wheelset and ENVE parts have been sitting in the basement untouched
However, next week there will be a nice little surprise in the post so lets see if that changes hybernation on (one of) the two projects
In the meantime I wanted to say thanks to more than 60,000 views in three years - just WOW!!!11

The m900 was a too good to pass kind of deal but I've not a plan on how to build/use the bike so it sits untouched.
My 2 cents on your build dilemma: as a neo-retro your black and gold caad4 it's unmatched so imo there is no point building the viper red one with a modern groupset. Spinergys are a very popular option on period correct caad builds so I think it'll be an easy one if you go for it.
What's the status on the campagnolo + stars & stripes caad4?
