New or update?

Ah, go for a new one Iura - you know you want to.
Just thing of the hours of bicycle retail therapy you could have, drooling of catalogues and loitering in bike shops.

If there's nothing particularly wrong with your current bike, you could just down-grade it to a winter training bike / bad weather bike if you don't want to get the new on too messy.

Also, you might want to check the shelf life of a fully carbon frame . If you've done a lot of miles in those 6 years it could be time for a change anyway.

P.S. Not a total expert of carbon frames but this excuse might rub off well with hubby/siginifcant other if they star turning pale when you mention getting a new bike
