Ahh, I understand now.

I'll be selling my Waterford 1900 within a few months. It will be sold more as a frame and wheelset than a complete bike. The components will likely need a complete swap-out, or parts wash for the ones which are salvageable. Nice bits included are Nitto stem, Nitto Randoneur (?sp) bars, Dura Ace bar ends (missing the plastic covers).

The BB/crankset bought on the road in Almaty Kazakstan is a low end MTB setup, so most folks would likely swap it simply for asthetic reasons. It was super nice gearing for climbing in Kyrgyz&Tibet though, it had a gorgeous older Deor triple on it, but the BB went (twice) and I couldn't find one to fit/wait there to have 1 shipped.

The wheelset is Peter White built 48 spoke around Phil Woods with I think Dyad Rims.

I've the wheelset out here, and the frame/components boxed in Boston-waiting for me to get a real address out here.

Let me know if interested, and I'll email you.

~No pics, my camera was stolen in Bangkok. But I'll borrow a camera when I go to sell her...
