Malpag3,

I say go for it while you are working at a shop (I'm at Northville by the way). Have you purchased from Easton? Pricing is good and delivery is fast. I bought a set of EA70 wheels last year and they ride great. I need a new seatpost for my CAAD8 and the 27.2 EC70's are back in stock so I will be ordering one real soon. Before Easton got into cycling I used their arrows for bow hunting and hockey stick shafts, aluminum and carbon, for ice hockey. Easton makes quality products. It's going to last and you will enjoy riding it.
