Lycc825:

That's pretty much what mine will be like. I'm running a similar setup: Avid BB7 road, Shimano 105 9 speed, LX hubs laced to Velocity VXC disc rims, all on a Nashbar "X" Frame. It's a nice frame, and I feel some guilt about possibly getting rid of it. At the same time, I'm very attracted to the steel Soma, and the thought of modding it with S&S couplers is very, very appealing to me.

Good words about the derailler hanger. Thanks. I didn't like the integrated seatpost binder idea either, but...oh well.
