C Heath-

Holy crap, that's a big bike, 2000px × 1300px.

Edit: Thanks, someone brought it down to a reasonable 1024px × 666px.

Hopefully I will have a few things to post, I have found a suspiciously shaped box that I have a pretty good idea what is in it.

I got a new SLX crankset (triple), M540 SPD pedals, and Specialized MTB sport shoes to go with it. I also got an Alivio crankset from another relative who wasn't in on the SLX buy. SLX and pedals are still in the mail, pics as soon as I get them in.

Socks, a really nice Ibex wool jersey. A cool guide book to the Great Divide cyling route, portions of which go pretty close to Missoula, and agift certificate to REI (though it will go to skis).

Gave more biking presents than I got though, mainly new handlebars, lights, and fenders for my dad's commuter.

So the suspicious box turned out to be Azonic Strip bars. I also got the Sette Shadow frame and money for a fork (it was an envelope with a plastic fork taped to it). I am thinking a 55 R. Do you feel like you could recommend it Ed? I am a little worried about the bushing slop issues but the price is hard to argue with... especially because it leaves me with extra funds for wheels or brakes.

Well technically it's a present. To me from me! Rest of the stuff should be here in a week or two.

I got $100 that will be spent on a part of a new BB/crankset or possibly a new BB for my road bike. For some reason I destroy bottom brackets.
