New bike? I want lightweight bike that'll take wider-than-normal-roadie tires, which pushes me towards custom. Since I'd like a custom bike, it might as well have S&S couplers so I can easily travel with it, and may as well make it out of titanium. It's getting to be a once-in-a-lifetime bike, so go ahead and put a SON dyno hub on so I can use it for commuting, too. And may as well get Phil bottom bracket, the price difference isn't so bad given what I've already come up with. And maybe a high-end rear hub, and and and...
And after I look at the price tag, it's a beautiful day to get on one of the bikes I have and go for a ride!
