I just picked this up on craigslist a couple days ago. It's a wheeler frame (not finding out much about them, anybody know them?) dura ace shifters and rd, 105 brakes and fd, ritchey crank and bars, and ultegra hubs. I've never had a titanium frame before and i'm liking it.

Lynskey R230 with newbie "soft crash" safety padding option.
Sorry the valve stems don't line up and it's in the wrong gear.
Just putting it together tonight. More to follow.

Sweet lynskey, I ALMOST pulled the trigger over
The wknd on the r330 deal they had going with free
shipping. Pretty sure I will at some point, think
if I clear some space I'll be more apt to pull
the trigger..

Seriously, this is Lynskey we are talking about.
Give Don Erwin a call or send him an email.
He will make you an offer you can not refuse. (hint hint)
I did and just order an R330 just now.

Don't be too hung up on what exactly the Lynskey website says about promotions or discounts expiring.

With my med bills, I can't afford a Lynskey! Heck, I ALMOST ordered a Motobecane Ti.
