it was a harmless, one sentence observation.
Chill out. I'm not responding again because this poor guy's thread doesn't need to be any more off track.
OP, my apologies for helping to screw up your thread.

As long as you don't plan on shifting the front derailleur, this is a great idea.

that bd ti moto w/ultegra for 2k is a hell of a deal. and it leaves all sorts of cash left over. Id go carbon for that budget though.

$3200 buys you a Scott Addict R2 with 6700.

With that budget you could get a nice EM, Somec or any other really well finished steel bike (not raleigh or any other junk please), even a used pegoretti or vanilla, and then maybe dress it with campy 11 how it deserves.
