That example of what you do in florida should clearly sway you away from dumping a ton of money into a ****ty foundation.

Thats not to say a pista is a ****ty frame, its just some of the components you are asking about belong on a pista concept.

1k into components isnt that much if your paying retail plus tax. It would be pretty goofy to invest so much into that frameset. hell a guy on ebay has been selling full build kits from fuji track pros for 500 shipped.

100 on a nice fork
250 on wheels
50 on stem/bars
50 on seat/post
100 pedals chain cog tires

those very rough estimates bring you to 650. Dont just spend 1000 dollars because you have it since much of the high end stuff just wont be needed for what you use the bike for.
