So i am in a bit of a situation...cannot decide which bike to sell ????‍♂️

 

I currently have two road bikes and decided to sell one and purchase a mtb but cannot decide which one to let go.

 

Bike 1

2018 Ribble Sportive Racing Di2

Matte black with gloss decals

Ultegra 11 spd

 

Bike 2

2017 Specialized Tarmac SL4

Black with yellow decals

11 spd 105

 

Both are great bikes but just cannot decide which one to sell.

 

Any advice as to which would be the better bike to hold on to?

 

Thanks

Keep the Ribble with Di2.  Better groupset that will give you more joy over the long run.

Difference in frames won't make that much a difference than what the groupsets will make.

Keep both and buy one awesome black road bike with Campagnolo.

I have one of those. 

 

Then I sold a Giant and bought the Scott wif Ultegra.

 

My missus asked when I'm selling the black american wif Campag, I said "that was never the plan..."

 

So I have still two bikes. Plus the tandem.

Sell the Specialized. With the Ribble being an uncommon brand in SA you're unlikely to get a decent price.

Plus I'm willing to bet the Ribble is a more comfortable ride..

Many scholars have devoted their entire life work to this. And now you come and disrespect their work.

It has been proven over and over again. There cannot be an argument.

You cannot own too many bicycles. It isnt possible.

You should be worried about how you are going to get another bike to add to those two.

It is how life works. Nature indended for it to be like that.

Seems like somehow you have two very similar roadbikes, so keep the one you enjoy riding the most.
