Now I need to figure out how I can get the Do-Re-Mi to buy one of these bad boys. Unfortunately, I have a lot of bills hitting all at once (home owner's ins, car ins, property taxes, auto repair). It sucks not being a 1-percenter!
Ain't that the way! LBS has the SLR1 version coming soon; I'm very much afraid I'm in the same boat re. outgoings vs. incoming, but I'm going to do my best to get hold of one: "road" oriented 29er-light really appeals!
