I do admit that I got a little excited in the beginning but it really doesn't make sense to put the best of the best parts on a cheaper frame- especially when they aren't necessary for it's intended use. Honestly, I want a more unique setup anyway so I'm going to keep giving it some more thought. Looking back on it, I think ck, phil wood and thompson everything can be a little boring as well because no real thought was involved. You just pick the most expensive item and slap it on the bike.
