I don't think that bike is cheap, maybe cockpit is a bit lower quality but that can easily be upgraded and fairly cheaply. And the cost of it makes it a very suitable club racer. I was considering either the Moto LeChamp SL or the Infernal but they sold out of them and Mike at BD claimed they were going to go with disk brakes when the new ones come in February of this year, which I didn't want at all; but I have feeling that BD may not be carrying the TI bikes anymore, they've hadn't gotten new ones since last November to replace stock!

But that frame is is a very nicely made frame that is worthy of putting on better components when the time arrives.
