i dig those SPOT flame paint jobs. Nice bike! How do you like those egg-beaters? The components on that thing and the disk brakes are pretty sick. I'm jealous.
Funny story:
I was in the LBS picking up some tubes yesterday and a guy comes in asking how to convert his Giant to a SS. The mechanic gave him some options then asked him why he wanted to switch(just being curious). THe guy stated that he was not finishing where he wanted to in XC races, and wanted to ride SS because he thinks it would be easier with less competition.
