is it just me or does that stock langster come with some damned nice parts... cranks, hubs, and bars. I mean the old stock langster came with specialized branded everything right? This doesn't seem like a bad deal if the msrp is unchanged.
and what kind of warrantee does specialized give the langster, yours can't be more than a year old so it really shouldn't be out of warrantee. When I raced bmx, the company's that made aluminum usually had a 5yr - lifetime warrantee, which was good because I broke one every 4 months.
