got it off CL for a decent deal, not overly impressed though. Its also too small for me. Parting and flipping it come spring.

I figure I could put together a respectable build for $1500-$1600, I'd just need to get together $1500-$1600 to do it. (and some way to justify it to myself, of course
)
(I figure the frameset, wheels, and cranks would make most of the cost of the build)

the spacers were really bothering me, but i left it like that for now to get a good ride in before cutting it any lower... I like the feel but it looks off to me.. I have Zip compact drops and mash bullhorns.. I like track drops for some reason.

My SS commuter next to my friend's carbon Scott after a Sunday ride around Koko Head. Nothing fancy, just a cheapie Cali made frame with some modifications. Let's say that'll be the first and last time I ever dare go that fast downhill.
