Which one fits better?
But, if you have both, why not keep both to enjoy each when you are in that mood?

Since it doesn’t appear to matter, just sell the one that you can get the most money.

Thank you for all of your time and input. Both the Klein and Specialized smile to me, and I do enjoy both almost equally. With the Klein, I cannot climb the same hills as I can with the Specialized due to gearing limitation. There were some details which I had left out due to lack of time when I had initially posted.....my apologies.
I was thinking of making of making some room since my components list is almost complete for a new 2007 Colnago C50.
build. This C50 will be equipped with Shimano Ultegra 11-Speed. I do have a 2002 Colnago Dream (aluminium frame) with Campagnolo Record 10sp groupo. This Dream was my first ever roadbike, so it has sentimental value.

Beautiful bikes DMC707. It seems most likely that I will follow in your footsteps. While looking at both of your bikes, I realized that one can go out and buy a brand new Specialized bikes (given available stock), but one cannot go buy a brand new Klein (Chehalis,WA).
Thank you for sharing. Ride on in good health.
