It's a minefield, this business of buying race bikes. The old addage says the only way to buy someone's race bike is from parc ferme. Once a race bike goes back to a shop, who knows what's what. Bits get taken off left, right and centre. If you buy one of these then you have to have absolute trust in who you're buying it from. And I do speak from experience. Probably a mute point anyway since no one on this board is likely to buy either, I suspect. Certainly not me. |
