Also snagged the 3T Zefiro LTD bars for only $450 and very low pricing on the UDi2 components, etc, etc.
Although I still have lots of extra parts left over from the earlier builds, I did sell off some major things like the Spinergy wheels, Ultegra tandem crankset, 10spd Ultegra shifters and the WI MI6 145mm hub. The 10spd UDi2 is destined for my stoker's single that is desperately in need of a component upgrade, so not counting that toward the tandem rebuild costs. Ok, we still have 2 forks, but who's counting? Besides, the ENVE will do fine for tours needing fatter/taller tires

Seems like the nicer the tandem you always want to get a little bit more performance out of it which leads to "Folie à deux ". A madness shared by two!
