It would have to be on a cheap carbon frame though. Maybe a little photoshoppin' to replace Don's head with Shants'?

UPDATE: I haven't heard peep from Bob Jackson, but I don't even know if I emailed the right address.

But for what it's worth, that IRO deal, with 35% off, could put us all on Anguses (Angi?) for ~$213, or Mark Vs for ~$161.

Is that with shipping or without?

Would tony ship each out individually, or would someone get a large freight shipment and ship each frame out?

That sounds like a very attractive option. Did he mention shipping or turnaround time or how payment would work?

I think it would be pretty sweet if we could have our run done in some obnoxious color so that if you saw one on the street you'd just KNOW it was one of the frames from this buy without any fancy headbadge or decals.

hot pink, neon green, yellow or some other obnoxious garish 80s color.

edit: or some crazy 80s splash or mix of all of them..

I'd seriously throw down for a crazy colored iro.

I like the Idea of neon green

if two colors are possible than like a green and pink or yellow

So, how many people are willing to throw down for the BF SSFG iro angus?

We're going to need to start coming up with excuses for our wives/partners. So count me in if the IRO thing goes down (and probably any other frame if it stays under $500).
