For all those checking occasionally for the MGOOF SAECO I announced an eternity ago, I have some good news:
Things taking shape!
You might remember that initially I wanted to go for DA 9100 as I thought Campy is not within the budget. Well some of you changed my mind and in January or so I had a 11s Super Record Group in my hands.
Unfortunately and upon closer inspection it turned out that the group was heavily used (which was not so heavily advertised at the time). So i sold this shit and since then I have been fairly unmotivated to chase a different group.
That said, I kinda fell for the 4 arm design of the later 11s campy groupsets and I figured that with luck, a 11s chorus would fit the bill.
I was heavily negotiating with a guy about a good looking group at around 650, when I noted that its mid season sale and with some research you could get a new chorus 12s for around 800.
While I was still undecided what to do I noted a 12s RECORD crankset for a reasonable price without any other parts - BUT when chatting with the seller it turned out that he had just been lazy to list the rest of the group (except RD/BB)
So…………. This arrived in the post today exceeding all expectations 😳🤯🥵
Yes! Bummer about the SR from marktplaats, good to hear you finally found an adequate groupset in mint condition. Looking forward to see it on the frame!
