No they are more personal shall we say and are not really relevant to anyone other than me.
Yes Jack - Its coming up on 4yrs since it first came out and with all intents and purposes with the release of the new SC then its more or less devalued the bike somewhat - even tho its a top end SC7 its the same as when a new model of car comes out, the old one is devalued. So with the guy wanting to buy it then it sort of fell into place really.
Kfjatek - the current SC had major problems when it first came out with the seat post slipping - the bolt system arrangement was shocking and Trek had to release a new bolt arrangement - its really fairly common but when you spend that sort of dosh you expect it to work. No doubt this current one will have all those quirks sorted
There is a bigger cluster as I've gone for Ultegra Di2 with this as the cost was an extra £600 but to retrofit would have been double that. Plus with the Ui2 fitted all the batteries are hidden away in the stem/ seat post etc but the retrofit they are visible so I know within myself I would regret not getting the Ui2 so spent probably more than I would have liked.
However back to my wife...awesome...just awesome.
