It's been more than a decade since my last road bike purchase, and I'm looking to get back into things.

I live in a *small* college town, with one small LBS. I'm set on giving them my business if at all feasible because, yeah, I do prefer local. If they go under, the city's an hour away (by car).

Their inventory is incredibly low at the moment (even for winter). There's only one bike in my size and price range (<$1500), but I love it. I'm too much of a newb to properly describe geometry, but it's comfortable without being too upright. It's light as **** compared to my much older aluminum bike. Rides great. I'm thinking of grabbing it next week, but I'd like to get some feedback on pricing before pulling the trigger. It's a custom build, not a Trek/Giant/Specialized mass model. So it's not easy to price shop. Especially since I've never shopped custom builds.

Anyway, the bike: Debernardi Verona frame, SRAM Apex components, (ack, forgot to note wheel brand), perfect saddle (so says my backside).

It looks like the frame goes for between 500-600. The finished product is 1450, with free tuning for a year. Does 850-950 seem like a fair ballpark price for that component set + assembly? I'm not looking to nickle and dime. I know it's a low-volume shop and I value the convenience. I've just never shopped custom builds, so I have roughly zero experience with pricing. Again, I'll pay a reasonable local premium. I just don't want to get fleeced.

Thanks for any feedback!
