So I've been acquiring parts for the last 6 months, and the frame arrived on Friday. After two rides, I like this bike a lot. I'm going to remove the upper spacer and cut the steerer, and I might remove the decals from the wheels.

I just got this from the Serotta Garage. A lightly used demo in just my size, could not tell it had been built up before, and Serotta F-3 fork for $1,690. I could not be happier!

I almost got a NOS Merlin Agilis off the bay for $1500 but someone outbid me for like $1526. It was a 2006 NOS medium frame, Ultegra etc. Seems like they got it for a helluva deal.

My baby, she's 5 yrs old and a keeper even if she dosen't look all that hot. Got
that magic ride with a soul. If I could only own one bike in my lifetime,
titanium would be the one.

You've inspired me. Did yours come with decals on it? My '06 Tuscany's came with them, but they're a little flashy for the rest of the bike. Ditch the big one on the downtube? Ditch them all? Hmm...
