Just a side note, my windsor came with better components than my brothers factory complete surly CC (except his hubs have a name brand on them, if you're of the opinion that a name = quality, but I'll be upgrading to a dynamo hub in the next month).
Obviously, everyone doesn't think so. But you do and that's good, since it's your bike. We should all be happy with our bikes.
