I can try and find you one locally and ship it...it'll come out much cheaper than 2000...even with shipping.
The biggest market here consists of guys in their 40's or 50's that like comfort and really expensive kit, 60% of the guys you pass on the bike paths here have a tummy, grey hair and a campy 11 speed record pinarello under their bums, travelling 25 km/h
and that's exactly the sort of person that would like Ti: flashy and expensive, yet comfortable! And thanks for the offer, but I'm afraid a new bike will be out of budget for another year or so. Besides, my single room in a frat house is also out of parking space
