This seems a little too good to be true, deep Vs, carbon fork, sugino cranks...

What a liar....those aren't Sugino cranks...just stock cranks painted orange.
Looks like it has loose ball hubs but it has carbon forks...unless you really want the orange, then I don't really think it's a super good deal.

It looks like the rear hub is a loose ball Formula with the dome-shaped shield.
