This is one of the "hottest" bikes I've ever seen. There are two drawbacks though. One, the price for the frame costs more than my complete Trek 5200. Two, they don't make it in my size.:(

Wow! A compact frame I could live with. But my bank account couldn't. Let us know if you get one and what you think if you do.

That seems like kind of a ******** sales practice. Tall people ride too! Well, I was gonna drop next springs tax return on one of these, but I guess not. Does LOOk have a similar model available in big boy sizes? How about this model.... anyone have any experience with this frame?

I will be purchasing the KG386i this fall/winter!
The KG 386 of 2003 has been transfigured into the KG 386i. The central change is that the 386i now comes with an integrated headset. Other than that, the song remains the same here. The two colors for 2004 will be Black/White and Black/Red.

Incorrect!
"Look makes no bones about the fact that they no longer do all of their production in-house at the Nevers, France facility. They've opened up a second production plant in Tunisia. As history scholars might recall, Tunisia is a former French protectorate. The two governments continue to have very close ties, and Tunisia has what very well might be the most stable government in all of Africa. Certain frames, forks, and pedals will be made in the Tunisian facility in order to resolve what was at times last year horrible availability of their most sought-after products. Please keep one fact in mind: the bike industry contracts out an enormous amount of production to independent manufacturing firms in Taiwan. What makes Look's factory in Tunisia unique is that Look owns and operates it. All workers there are employed by Look, and all of the quality control systems of the Nevers factory will be in place in Tunisia. Given that the quality of the Tunisian-made products will be first-rate, and given the generally horrendous socioeconomic state of the entire African continent, we have nothing but the highest regard for Look's expansion to Tunisia. The world would be a better place if more companies implemented their strategic plans with one eye on profitability, and the other eye on the betterment of the world."
