My new love...GT GTR Carbon Pro
Yup, that's right. This bike is awesome. I recently purchased it as a whole and am parting out the components and wheels on ebay and put on my old stuff(well old stuff from April that is).
I've only had aluminum frames before(BMC, Klein, Cannondale) and the ride on this is wonderful. I'm not getting jarred from every little bump in the road. The seat mast is pretty cool looking but I think Ritchey could have done a better job with the seat mast clamp, it weighs a ton. Other than that I think GT has done a very good job with this one. I just wish GT would put them out in the stores and then people could see how cool they are.
If you want to check out my ebay listings they are ending this afternoon...

Sure you can think of it as spam but I'm also promoting my new ride. So am I being a shill for GT. No. I'm just stoked for a having a sweet ass bike.
Btw, regarding the $20 for shipping, I have no idea if thats what it'll cost that's just a guess.

Nice ride. Looks like a Scott in Team Columbia-HTC colors.
