deshi, the hell with us haters. i'm just mad i can't afford it! ;) jealousy is a big ingrediant in hater-ade, lol.

unforch for me, best i can afford it a kilo.

i really like it. my guess is everyone hates specialized b/c they are "the man", and the man keeps everyone down? well that and the city langsters are fugly. i really like the way this one looks, chrome fork and threaded fork, i'd buy this one or a bianchi in a heartbeat if i could afford what the lbs are asking.

nice build!

Nobody is mentioning this. The Capo has the same bull****, and they get torn up pretty bad.

Well, I picked this because I payed less than a Kilo would have cost me. I work in a shop that sells specialized and was able to score it on EP. I will admit the rest of the parts were not real cheap but it is a very nice bike none the less. I am very happy with it.
