I just checked today.
My new tandem (from Angletech) is on schedule but they aren't asking me to send the payment balance yet. I haven't heard about the frameset for my single bike (from Hostel Shoppe).
Do you have an anticipated delivery date? I feel like a kid waiting for Christmas.

Right----So what colour? What upgrades? What accessories?
Colour will mean a new riding strip so get online to find that now- Upgrades should not be necessary- but with a Madone you may be able to think of a few- and the accessories-Every bike needs accessories. New colour co-ordinated wedge for under the saddle- Bottle cages that do not clash with the frame colour and It has to have a new computer with Elevation listed on it (Unless you live in Florida and perhaps the elevation might be over the top)
So 35 days for you to sit there and wait for the new ride
Pics from the catalogue would help but you have done it all wrong for this forum. You are supposed to ask our opinion of it first- then we can advise you to getting a bent with a Brooks saddle and a triple.
Thank goodness no- one listens to our suggestions.

I didn't ask for the forums advice because I never see where anyone ever helps with the money so they don't get a vote. Yuk, Yuk.
