They'll probably go on the mountain frame, unless they are needed for the @Heathpack Trek Lexa Magicification Project™.

That would be fun little temp job wouldn't it.
Thanks, it's a huge pay cut but it's in HR and I believe there are many advancement opportunities in that field.

They liked us. I'm pretty confident we'll get re-booked there. That's good, if this place will hire you, it kind of elevates you one notch in the local musical act pecking order. That helps. Regardless, getting the gigs doesn't seem to be that tough for us. So far anyway. Considering the fact that when you figure all the time and effort it takes to get them you're making less than minimum wage, that doesn't seem like much of an accomplishment. It's like you have to stupid enough to subject yourself to it in the first place.
It's more fun than cycling. And less dangerous. Well, depending on the audience. The gigs with the biker dudes might get a bit dicey.

You have to stick around to the gig climax to find out.

@Heathpack, if you ride the Madone and don't like it, I will offer up an option:
1. When BMC is returned, ask LBS for a bike box.
2. Place Lexa in said box, and ship it to @rjones28 and I.
3. Once received in our lovely Central New York rebuild facility, we will:
a: Install a 165mm 50/34 crankset
b: Install a 9 or 10 speed groupset, with improved braking and a minimum 12-30 cassette.
c: Install a 50 mm rake fork, preferred option being carbon, fall back steel, to carve corners like a Thanksgiving bird.
d: Install better wheels that will be fully compatible with the magic bike, and 25 or 28 mm tires.
4. Once our rigorous testing process is completed, we will place it back in the box, and ship it back to you.
5. Once the process is complete, you mail us a check for the part cost, which would probably be less than $850. No mark up, no margin, no inflated labor charges. A 0% gratuity will be included.
Upon receipt, if you are not 100% satisfied upon its return, there will of course be nothing you can do about it, but since that is so unlikely, I wouldn't even worry about it.
This is a limited time offer, and operators are standing by.
