Is having case hardened teeth a requirement to work at MIT? Pastors need thick skins!

BD,

I respectively disagree with jab. Original art is one of a kind, unique, like no other piece. It might be similar, but it's not mass produced and sold showroom. Now, if the Trek in question had been custom built for Lance Armstrong prior to beginning his TdF career, then I believe preserving it "as is" makes sense. But since it is not, do as you please, and enjoy the project and the subsequent ride!
