Pinarello Dogma 60.1 2011 - I use this frame since 2013 January and bought it as short-used second hand. My Strava numbers tell me the distance I have done is more than 8000 km with Campagnolo Super Record 80th year anniversary groupset and Bullet Ultra 50mm wheels again as 80th year anniversary

Giant Propel Advanced SL 2015 : https://www.giant-bicycles.com/en-us/bi ... 721/76263/ It's shipped as a frame - no groupset

Orbea Orca OMR 2015 : It's shipped as full-bike with Ultegra Di2 and Vision Metron 40mm wheels - For frame colour : http://www.orbea.com/us-en/bicycles/orca-mltdi/

Should I transfer Ultegra Di2 to Giant Propel or should I transfer Campy to Giant Propel? Or should I transfer Campy to Orbea Orca and Ultegra to Giant Propel?

I sometimes read some negative comments about Campy & Propel combination. However, both groupset and frame are made of matte carbon and have red details on themselves.

Anyway. Please feel free to write whatever you guys have in your mind about that situation.

Choose whatever takes your fancy. Do you really need help with this ? Who dresses you in the morning ?

You should stare at your components until they re-arrange themselves.

Either way whichever you choose they will form into a bike to ride.

My vote is transfer the Di2 to the Propel and the campy to the Orbea.

Also, did you buy the Propel recently and where?!?!

Send me the Dogma frame, then you won't have to think about it.
