Great idea, Pam.
I wish I had one to share, but so far I do not. I'm going to put one
together though. For me it's a mix of objectives:
- Listing each of the replaceable parts (e.g., tires) and whether I have
spares (how many, brand, specs), as well as highlighting the cells where
I'm looking to add (so I can search lbs / websites looking for deals). I
wouldn't list items here that I'm not looking to replace (frame, fork)
- Things I want to buy included above, but I may list the 'nice to have'
items such as cool cable ends, headset caps, water bottles
- Perhaps in the same file, different tab, I would have the full
existing spec; this may get updated over time. I would list each part and
where applicable its specs / measurements. You could put a timestamp on
these if you want to track when you bought / installed them (just another
column in the file. When I bought my Roadini from C&L in Montreal I think
they sent me a list like this (spec, anyway), that would be my starting
point
Easy to add column as you think on this further ("Comments", for example).
One advantage of such a spreadsheet means that if you're placing an order,
say from Bluelug, you can check this list and see what you want to add (if
already paying shipping, and you have the extra $ lying around)
