Thanks for all the input, which is mixed but still helpful. So now my question is frame specific. My frame has clearance for wider tires up to at least 25. I know because I've done that already. When originally built the frame was a TdF level frame. So at one point it was about as nice as you could get. We've talked about the changes in a lot of the components. Has frame technology changed enough where it's worth it to consider an all new bike or can I hang new components on what I've got (Realizing that the frame won't support disc brakes.) and enjoy the upgrades while still keeping the old frame?
If it was a pro level frame back then, it would still be pretty good by current standards, although not top of the heap.
My plan is basically the same as what you are proposing. I have a steel frame that is currently partially built, so I’m planning on getting 11s mechanical for the carbon bike and swapping the old 9s stuff to my steel frame.
