Sell it your buddy and share the kool-aid. You will not build it up again. Next bike you build will be a Sultan.

Thanks.

You're right, I probably won't. Plus he's my regular riding partner, so I'll at least get to see it all the time.

Sultan, huh? Well, I can't say that I've ever considered a 29'er, but I wouldn't mind throwing a leg over one just to see what all the fuss is about.

Me too. I wanted to see action photos of the box. I didn't know we were talking about dumb bikes here!

Nice! Too bad about the box though.

I love those Hope stems and would buy one if I didn't live in the state that produces the Thomson stuff.

Yeah, I've used Thomson in most of my builds. Although recently I went w/ a Race Face stem and post (mainly for the offset on the post), I've always liked Thomson.

The Hope stuff is really nice, and just as expensive! If Thomson had some color options, I'd have stuck with them.

LOL! Nah, my long hair, dread days are long over. I unfortunately do not ride a bike for living - dreads don't play well in an office environment.
