Singlespeed & Fixed Gear "I still feel that variable gears are only for people over forty-five. Isn't it better to triumph by the strength of your muscles than by the artifice of a derailer? We are getting soft...As for me, give me a fixed gear!"-- Henri Desgrange (31 January 1865 - 16 August 1940)

I think it's a good price but that's just me. The one I really want is the one with the polished lugs. Sweet ride though.

i'd say 250-300

and sora can go suck a d*ck, i'd rather have dt shifters than another bike with sora. tiagra at the very minimum, 105 preferable. sora and 2203 is a waste of time and money

I wasn't sure if it was going to work. Was kind of a gamble, but I'm happy with how it turned out.
