I don't regret passing it on to someone else. I wouldn't mind getting involved in another one if it ticked all the boxes on the wish list.

Oh I get it, I have almost the same situation.

The only chrome one I have is a size small frame only, has a couple of little dings and some lackluster chrome as well.

It would make a fine rider/placeholder but I found some better non chrome candidates along the way so it has and continues to languish.
