2008 Litespeed Icon Frame (I opted for the nude frrame seemed timeless to me)
Easton EC90 carbon fork
Dura Ace- F&R derailers, brakes, flightdeck
Ultegra SL-crank (compact 50-34), cassatte
Ritchey Pro handlebars, wcs 4axis 110mm stem, Carbon Pro seatpost
Chris King Headset
My old Specialized Alias 143 (can't part with it I love this saddle)
all rolling on some Mike Garcia fabricated Velocity Aerohead rims laced with 28 spokes in the front and 32 spokes in the rear wrapped in Conti Grand Prix 4000's. All for just a hair over 17lbs
(I think my last Thanksgiving meal weighed more than that)

Here's some photos. I'll post more after the fit is complete.
Very nice. Was it as good as the fatted calf your dad gave you when you returned? I assume your screen name refers to the parable of the prodigal son.
