So here’s a cool story. I saw an ad on FB marketplace for 2 bikes. Of course they were non drive side pictures and not close ups, but I could tell what they were. An early model Specialized Allez Epic and an early Trek 1200. They were in my sons town about 4 hrs. away, so I gambled and bought them for $80. Knowing they were most likely 105 equipped bikes it would be worth parts alone. So I came to pick them up today and the Allez had a couple hidden surprises. Someone swapped in a Dura Ace 8 speed group with shifters (fully functional), derailleurs and hubs. Sadly the carbon/aluminum joints do not look great. But I’d say it was a score!
