Summary: I just lucked out!!! I purchased the bike on ebay with a $9.99 (not a typing mistake). The bike arrived complete with a dura ace 9 speed group and Mavic helium wheels and just happened to be my size. although in good shape, there where some things I wanted to change. I put a Ritchey comp threadless fork WCS handlebar and stem and smoothed it all out with a chris king headset. After breaking 3 spokes on the helium wheels I replaced them with Ksyrium sl's and the bike is beautifull. She is smooth as a caddy; cuts corners like a lotus and climbs like a squirl. I couldn't ask for a better ride. Strengths: Great welds nice finish TITANIUM Need I say more. This build up weighs in at 15.27 lbs Weaknesses: MONGOOSE MONGOOSE MONGOOSE. I left the decals on just for the Scott riders to snub me while I am passing them (she said she rode one when she was a little girl, than grew out of it).
