When is the right time to just part out a bike?

I have 2 CX bikes hanging on the wall behind me right now. 1- my trusty Fuji Cross 2.0 56cm that fits me perfectly... 2- 2017 Raleigh RX2.0 56cm that I bought on impulse via the eBay sale back in the Fall.

The Raleigh just rides too small for me, and my toes seem to cross WAY more on technical stuff than the Fuji. Which is weird because all the geo angles look like the Raleigh would be the same or larger-riding, but whatever.

At this point, I've been low-balled a couple of times and I'm pretty tempted to just keep the Raleigh and move the Rival 1 over to my Fuji.

I guess my point of this thread is for the guys who have bikes that are totally fine already... What makes you pull the trigger on parting them out? or robbing parts for another bike in general?

And because we all love pictures.
