You have $10,000 USD to spend

Grab a Fuji while ASE is liquidating
Transonic w/ eTap & Meilensteins
or get it stock w/ Oval Concepts 950's and donate the extra $8k to WBR

Complete groupset stipulation means no SystemSix, because not having a Hollowgram on a Cannondale is weird and wrong.

BMC TimeMachine Road 01 with Dura Ace Di2

BMC TimeMachine Road 01 with Dura Ace Di2

That's $13,000 isn't it ?

Correct, my bad. The Ultegra Di2 would get you well under $10k

[gurk700]

aero? the current venge with previous gen eTap group + Quarq DZerp PM

[tabl10s]

New S5 w/AXS.
Cipollini RB1K "The One" w/AXS
S-Works SL6 Ultralight/Venge w/AXS
Orbea Aero w/AXS

All would have Roval wheels.

[pedale]

Venge pro, a bike box and a trip to your deam cycling location.

$10,000 is not unlimited budget. Pretty sure none of these bike are under 12000. Especially if you change the OEM wheels.

[matvalse]

Probably another Colnago C64, maybe with Lightweight wheels and the new Sram groupset.
But.. I need more than 10000$

I get a military discount at one LBS and a "just because" discount(s)at another. I never pay list for anything and wait for sales.

One shop in town is tax free, for one day, every November.

That kind of defeat the purpose of the thread. The point is that $10000 is not enough anymore to buy the top of the line of pretty much any bike brand. For 10k, you get the Ultegra Di2 Disc.

My 2019 Madone SLR with Dura Ace di2 9150, Bontrager XXX-6, Madone cockpit, Bontrager XXX saddle, and Speedplay Zero Titanium pedals cost me less than $10K to build. Let face it, these are not Picasso or Rembrandt paintings. These are mass produced products made in countries where labor is cheap and mark ups high. Its not difficult to shop smart and get a better deal.

[fromtrektocolnago]

Just did a build that barely went over 10k. it required compromises. feels like it was only a few years ago where 10k meant sky's the limit

[flying]

$2000 on something more than fine enough & $8000 left to travel to a few nice places & ride or join a few gran fondos in cool spots
