I just don't think that DB Apex owner is out there in the region. I think it would be a different story if the bike was in the USA or Europe.

Good job you don't lived in Europe "Pyro Tim" would track you down for that opening statement above, and offer his own (special) form of "re-educate" you on the merits of the DB range,
and if that failed he'd phone the R.B authorities and offer to take it into care.

Haha!
Dear Pyro Tim, come visit New Zealand. Let's do some riding and talk about this. Bring yourself home a true DB master piece. I'm from Somerset originally so surely we're like family cheers

I think my little Apex would have been in similar condition before splitting - the frame and forks are pristine and the wheels barely have any marks to the rim anodising. Like you I probably paid more than I should have and the ebay shop from which I bought it still has most of the other parts listed for a premium.

. . . and that is exactly the reason I am seriously considering selling too :? . I'd dearly love to buy all the other original parts and build it back up fully geared but the cost would be waaaay more than the complete bike would be worth. I just can't bring myself to ruin those lovely rims with Welsh mud but can't justify such an expensive wall ornament :cry:
I have no intention on splitting to sell (like the buyer you got your frame from) but split to build another frame which would get used. My conscience tells me this is ok.....
