Not a dead post to me. Got several thousand miles on my frame and still loving it.
Coho's are one of the best deals out there. When I spec'ed my bike, I didn't even consider cost. Everything on it is exactly what I what I wanted and the whole shebang was less than $2500

This bike is roughly based on the Paisano- similar geometry. I've got some extra braze-ons and vertical dropouts though.
