Quick update, and thanks for everyone's input.

Saw the Kona Sutra...horrible condition, and no, parts were not changed in 11 years. The guy had zero interest in negotiating, he was firm on his $900, which was strange. Wished him luck in his sale.

Giant OCR: It was listed as 54cm, but when I got there, it looked giant (pun sort-of intended). I check the frame and it was 58cm! Why or how he misread that, I do not know.

I might go for a custom build from a local Montreal shop that make their own frames. Will be *slightly* over the budget, but not by much, and it will be brand new and exactly what I want.
