This is my "beater"... (although I love it almost as much as my A bike). It came with two sets of wheels, two Ultegra cassettes, two extra Ultegra rear derailleurs, an old school Specialized headlight, and 105 8-speed ingtegrated shifters, all for $110 off craigslist. I took off the shifters to clean them and threw on some old Exage dt shifters and aero levers in the interim, but like it so much, will probably keep it that way. Everything else is period 105. I'll soon rebuild the matching Wolber front wheel and it will be complete. I've been completely blown away by the ride quality. The aluminum fork is actually more comfortable than the carbon-legged fork on my other bike.
