Buyer says it's a Triban rc520 with a different carbon Beiou frame. Not sure if it actually is a shimano105, because the rear derailleur seems to be different than the normal rc520.
Ummm… it’s not a “modified Triban” if it’s got a Beiou frame. Is this some sort of Ship of Theseus thought experiment?
And also no, it’s not worth $800.

lol wtf Are you sure it’s a modified Triban rc520? It looks like a modified pool cleaner roomba to me.

Update: sorry guys, I don’t know much about bikes and the buyer told me it was a “modified Triban rc520”, hence the title. He’s sent pictures of the rear derailleur and the groupset seems to be a shimano 105, but I’m not sure, as it doesn’t seem to be the same model as the original rc520, so probably older?
