So did you get the Insight from Nashbar? It was a great price. That's where I got mine as well. Easy to setup. But buying a bike unassembled, I found to appreciate what a LBS does for you. I needed to go over every spoke. There were loose spokes. Do the "pluck" test to get a start on finding those loose spokes. After I got them close, then I started the real truing process. I also tuned the front and back derailures. But all in all. I'd do it again. I enjoyed the assembly and tuning process. Let us know how it goes. And for sure, post a pic when done.
