At the moment, the lowest I can find for a 50cm frameset is $825 shipped. While I have no trouble with paying this much, I was wondering if they will go any lower in price eventually since the end of the year is near, or if I should just get one now.

I'd wait.

Thanks Morgan. Probably a smart choice since I'll be out of the country in 10 days for 2 months. No use having a frame laying around for that long.

The 2012 FTP 2.0 has a similar grey and is going for $599 right now. Just another option.

Haha coincidentally, that was also a contender. I was really interested in a Kagero frame as well. Money is not really an issue, but it would be a shame if the prices dropped even lower than they are right now right after I bought a Bolt frameset. I'm literally this close to just going for it.

You can take the kagero off the list in the meantime; by the time you're back in the states, the 2013 model would've been released already.

I'm actually very curious to see if they make any changes to that frame. I very much like the current version; it can't get any better for me. I think the Cinelli Bolt could look better (it's a little boring for a "flashy" frame, imho), but I still think it's badass. If I didn't already have a simple gray frame, I'd be going for the Kagero in a heartbeat.

The changes made to the Kagero have been listed all over the internet.

It's my understanding the Bolt is staying the same for 2013.

Thanks Scrod. I knew you would know but I didn't want to be redundant by asking on your thread. good lookin out!

No prob!
