A little side story on that Look. I picked it up a few years ago off Craigs List in Charlotte (160 miles one way from where I live, I am kind of crazy on driving distances when it comes to picking up a bike). Miamijim had posted it on the deals on C/L and ebay message (which I rarely look at). The seller already had a buyer in NYC that wanted him to just send the fork!! So he decided to sell to me instead, to keep the frameset together. Since I ride a 56, no way this frameset was going to fit me. A couple of years later, Jan dropped me a PM and I ended up sending it to him in Utah.

The Look frameset also came with a rear Mavic Cosmic Elite rear wheel, which ended up with Robbie Tunes.
