I am not a frame builder but if given an opportunity I would like to try it out.
Anyway, I have "corrected' a couple with help from this group and greatly appreciate the responses and feedback.
In January, while looking through Market Place, a Litespeed Catalyst showed up at a very good price, more than half what a complete bike comparably outfitted is being asked on the bay. I know that alignment is key in the build of the frame with no chance of post build alignment with significant investment. This thing was like I had ridden it all my life, hands free on the first ride with impeccable alignment in that position. I reflect @sdodd comment above.
The Montello rear triangle is off by about 2 mm to the drive side. I haven't done anything about it as the rear wheel is dished to compensate. I am now thinking it is past time to overhaul and address the issue along with the finish in a minor way. Besides, the Montello and Catalyst both are 3x9 Racing T with the difference of clinchers vs tubulars (Montello). Might be even a nicer ride though both have Vittoria G+ tires.
What encourages me to do so is the alignment I did to another frame that was a bit more out of alignment without any consequences.

Bottom line is this thread discussion of ride quality was inspiring, thanks!
