looking for something like a caad9 5 or in similar range
aluminum frame with at least 105 or 105 equivalent.
ive been checking craigslist but nobody has contacted me back yet so im hoping someone might have something similar to sell here before i go to a shop.
hit me up with a price if you have anything for me. thanks!

Want to buy a brand new Trek1.5, Shimano 105 frameset for $950. Only 150 miles on it and maintenance done every 3 days since bought.

Yeah, pretty firm. I JUST bought it but I want to sell it to get two other bikes. I've got too many fncking bikes. Anyway, I'll be honest. I paid $1050 plus tax. I just bought it about a week and a half ago. It rides great but I just came up on an 08 Cervelo P2 for a total steal.
It's a 54cm top tube but the geometry on these Treks is pretty good for range. I can put a shorter stem on it and it will fit perfectly. Drop the seat if you need to. I'm 5'7 and it fits great.
I'll be back in LA by next week so let me know if you don't find anything else by then.

im trying to stay away from campy bc im afraid of paying an arm and a leg whenever i need replacement parts.
the de rosa set up sounds awesome but i think i might be too short for a 54cm.
how is the geometry on that?
i know that some companies that make 54cm might fit someone who rides a 51cm of a different brand.
i konw this is a pain in the ass but if the de rosa is too large for me, is there any way you can switch out the parts onto a 51-52cm frame?

De Rosa is 52cm center to center on the seat tube
53.5cm center to center on the top tube
Would rather sell complete.
Bianchi is a compact and looks like it would fit a shorter person than the De Rosa.
Bianchi is Rival shifters and rear der, cassette, Campagnolo is the crankset, front der, and bottom bracket.
I think it would be worth it if you want to swing by and throw a leg over them.
