thanks, going for a all purpose road type bike. I am seriously considering the roadie, but really still undecided. Wont ever see off road but a touring bike too I have always wanted.

YES, this actually does concern me. When I get it all layed out I am going to see if A: They will send it out for a powder coat finish or B: see if they will sell me an unfinished frame set. I am guessing there is a no-go on either of these options but will see what happens.

I do like the way to do finish bikes though, looks seriously nice.
