It took over 22 days, but had it built in a few hours. Need some hoods and possibly a brown avocet saddle instead of the black. Rode it on thanksgiving after eating, and it is a great frame for a heavy guy. Realy short top tube, but it handles very well. This will be ridden with groups on all but the fastest rides. Seems very comfortable, if I could pound out thirty miles with nine pieces of pie on top of a huge dinner sloshing in the gut on this thing, then I look forward to trying a few centurys.

I used all parts from my pile, so I am out only the 160 for the frame and shipping, but will get a better chain, the hoods, and might look into some panaracers in 1 1/8. The rear derailer is a shimano light action, will be shopping for something better I think. The leather bar wrap was just some scrap I had. Unfortunatly I found some leather in a burgandy that would match the frame really well the next day, but it will have to wait. It feels great by the way, I see it in the future for all my bikes.

Here is the thread that led me to by this frame. I seriously might order another. http://www.bikeforums.net/showthread...nturion-frames
