Hi guys, longtime lurker, first time poster.
So with the help of this board, I went and built myself a Carbonda CFR505. I had dreams of becoming a monster gravel guy. Maybe I'd travel cross country with it. Who knew what the future could hold for me with my new machine? Well, I finished this build about 8 months ago and have only ridden it once! Why? Well, there are a couple reasons... Number one, I race cross country and when I'm endurance training on gravel roads, I'm riding a mountain bike. Number two, when I do ride road I like riding my BMC Roadmachine. It's not that I don't love the Carbonda. I do! It's a beautiful bike, I just don't have a use for it with three mountain bikes and a road bike in the garage.
Let me know your thoughts on what I should be selling this bike for.
Here's the rundown:
- Carbonda Med CFR505
- Roval Control Carbon 29 Wheels (Custom built with Sapim Race spokes and Roval branded DT Swiss Hubs)
- Panaracer Gravelking SK 38mm
- Shimano Di2 11sp with Ultegra crankset, XT Di2 derailleur, 11-36 Ultegra cassette
- Absolute Black Oval 44t Chainring
- Redshift Shockstop Stem
- Easton EC70 AX Bars
- Tioga Spyder Stratum Saddle
- Ultegra Disc Brakes
- Shimano Ice Tech Rotors
- Supacaz Bar Tape
