Did they quote you a price?
If so, how is it equipped?

built up a "too-light" Colnago to go with

the same way.

It's not that hard at all.

Cool. I might be interested. How much would it cost and what is the warranty?

scott- Just got back from test riding the new Cannondale Six13... I may be
partial to the C'dales since I own a couple, but dang... Gotta be the
sweetest bike I've ever ridden. BRBR

Ride 20 'sweet bikes' and all will hagve goods and others. Ride some that weigh
3 pounds more than the C-Dale and you may not be any faster than the C-Dale.

WAY to much emphasis on bicycle equipment. Please remember that the boys at
Saeco have a van full of spares, a legion of wrenches. They ride a 'new' bike
each day.

No doubt the c-dale is a 'sweet' ride but it won't make the sun come up any
earlier, make the birds sing, the flowers bloom . YOU still gotta push it up
the hills.

tdw- How much would it cost for a sub 16 lb. Colnago or Lightspeed? How much
would
it cost if you don't own a bike shop? BRBR

Calfee Dragonfly, carbon fork, Record, hand-made wheels-About $6200..easily
under 16 pounds.
