I was more venting a bit than anything. THe Spartacus is a nice deep wheel (by Velocity) but low spoke count so a risk with my frame (and I'm not talking bike here)! The fuji was a decent enough bike, but a 3-4 year old "old-new stock" (as they said) for $519 was overpriced by far.
Nice enough people, and I'm far from an expert, but they definitely were going to take me for a ride.
