Yes, waiting sucks...leads to anxiety induced eating disorders (as J- describes above).

My Andante was promised in 6 weeks. Came in about 7 weeks.

My Rich Adams was promised in 4-6 months. Now, its in the eighth month. At least its headed to the painters.

My Johnny Coast was promised in 6-9 months (around Dec-Jan). Got moved up and picked it up within 3 months. Its a beaut... Will post pics soon.

One of things that had delayed my Rich Adams was the fact I kept changing my mind about geometry and stuff.

BTW, your knees won't be going anywhere for a very long time. Just use a front brake and you're good.

chrome fenders, chain guard, chrome bell...boy, what an ultra-femme bike.
