I bought a Cross Check about 8 months ago. I absolutely love it, the vintage feel and style of it, plus I have leather tape and Brooks saddle. But I just got the opportunity to buy a Litespeed Classic for a good price (~$1200, with Dura Ace 7800). I hardly ride the Surly, just occasional gravel road or spin around town. I tried commuting a few times but I don't do mornings great and school is 9 mi away so usually I don't have time. So, the Surly sits, as I am usually riding my R3 in the few instances I get enough time after classes to ride, and weekend groups I am riding the R3 also. I always wanted a Ti bike, and LOVE Litespeeds, especially how well they ride and how smooth, yet fast they are. I would totally ride this bike during group rides and on my mid week runs too.


So my dilemma: Do I sell the Surly, and get the Litespeed? Or do I let the idea go, and move on, justifying it as unnecessary...
