Thank you very much Tyler!
I got that bike about a year ago from a friend of mine who climbed up to titanium category, and it was just an old fashion road bike, but with good frame geometry (for my standards). I got the transmission (full shimano 105), the wheels and some other minor things and it was ready to roll... It didn't attract me at the very first rides and i left it waiting for me during my 9 months term in the army to make up my mind if i was going to sell it or not...
I got it on sale but two days after i withdrew it and decided to keep it an make it fit my style and my needs.
Now am a happy biker in the chaos of Athens!!!
