Heres how it all went down. I found the frame on ebay and it didn't have any bids so I offered to meet the guys offine to work out a deal locally. He really didn't want to deal with shipping so he was happy to. The frame was custom made for his team in 2000-01 so its fairly nice and was basically similar dimensions of a Felt which I have been fitted on, except this had a little longer headtube so I have no spacers. I then found barend shifters and deraileurs on either triathlete.com classifeds or ebay(total for the shifters and derailleurs was $20-25 shipped). Got the aerobars(VisionTech) used but the basebar(also VisionTech) new. I already had the crank/BB and everything else was ordered on Nashbar or Performance bike with %20 off coupons. Except the wheels which were a training set I picked up, but once I start racing seriously I'll get something a little more aero. All in all, I think the bike looks good, and I'll try and get a hold of a camera sooner or later to post pics.

In all reality, your bike will suffice for what you need it to and probably help you suceed, its got skinny tires and aerobars and rides well. If it means feeding yourself or gettnig the frame, you know the obvious choice. However, this could give you a chance to expirement in building up a bike and knowing what exactly you want (If all else fails sell the components on ebay anytime before July and yuo'll most likely get your money back). I don't want to be the one pushing you on something you should decide but I thought I'd show that there is many options.
