I'd reckon that my bike's MSRP would be about $6k
The bike's MSRP is $3700, plus a $500 crankset I put on, plus a $2300 pair of Zipps.

I gurantee that my bike, in its current race-ready form, cost me more than $6k. Sad thing is, it's not even THAT nice...

Total cost comes in @ about $6K, maybe a little more. Add even a bit more with the Zipp tubulars.
That was with a $500 discount, some parts purchased off eBay and from PBK. I'm sure full retail would be closer to $6500-$7000 with the Williams 38c wheels as pictured. Any pro-level racing bike from a major manufacturer will be $6K + these days, some are $8K+.

Is it just me, or does the rear wheel look oddly large in relation to the frame? It's probably just the way the frame is shaped, especially the rear triangle and the angle of the top tube, but I've never really noticed that type of thing before. Regardless, it is a very nice bike.

Just sold this frame and fork but the replacement F&F will keep me in the silly money category. As others have said if I had to pay retail I would be riding a much lower "category" bike but would be just as happy.

Never been much of a bargain hunter/haggler.
