how much did yours cost? (i'd ask Retem) but given the wheels and components on his, it's cleary higher end than i'd like mine to start out at... and it's funny you guys say it's not really compact geomtery, because i went to trackstar and measured it, and it is less than 2mm off in the seat tube (top tube is spot on) to being the exact same geometry as my specialized allez comp...crazy.

i talked to the guys at trackstar and they quoted me 800 for what i assume is a budget build-up... is there any way they meant 800 hundred on top of the $300 frame??? I forgot to ask, but we're talking mavic cp22's laced to formula hubs, so nothing fancy, seems like around the right price to me, but???

btw. Retem, yours is so nice, it's close to what i would like mine to become at some point, 'cept i prefer drops. any plans of throwing a black, straight carbon fork on that?
