Not sure, but I bet you could buy a carbon fiber bike for each day of the week and still have money left over for a happy meal at McDonalds.
Heck, with all the money that people pay for them, you'd think the factory could at least throw in a paint job.

Fork looks nice.
Compact geometry kills the *schwing* (sic) though...
edit: Those are some big *** downtubes/tubes in general.

I have heard that Moots has the best welds of any Ti manufacturer; but, I don't really like the bead blasted look. I prefer a Ti bike I can use a green pad to clean up. So, when I buy a Ti bike, will probably go with a company like Kirk or Kish. They both build custom Ti bikes.

You know, I was halfway expecting a Liz Hatch thread, but I guess this is nice too.
