Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

YES... the bottle cage is total OCP
After 3 months of waiting I finally found the bike in a shop in pennsylvania, I had to order it from them, they were unwilling to resell to my LBS. I saved money on tax that way, but the cost of building/fitting will offset that. I really didn't want to mail order it, but it looks like it was either that, or wait another 6 months. I called every freakin shop in DFW/Waco/Austin before I gave up.

Whew

Last time I spent this much money, I was buying a car.

Hell I'd rather see pics than read all the item numbers and B.S.................

$80.00 bucks for a carbon cage? Heck you could have had 3, 26 gram forte cages for that price.

Pictures please.........

Yes. In my case, it's so that I can sell it and replace it with a normal cage, and put $70 in my pocket.
