I think even for a hardtail, but you do look like you have your bases well covered with your Fisher and Kona combo. Is the Kona women-specific?
Yes, it IS a good price for a ti. Normal price is 2600 non-custom for the frame.
The Caldera is not WSD. They have one called "LISA" new for 2006 that is supposed to be the women's version of the Caldera but mine is 05. For 06 Kona went down in components - that's why I picked and 05 on sale. Better bike, better price.
