I scored a new Burley frame on ebay. My Jamis Quest is just a tad too small, so I got a navy blue sparkly Burley Sahalie frame for $200! It already has the headset, so I can move the rest of my Shimano 105 components from the Quest myself. Well, I'm going to have to have my lbs help me with the bb...Used, but not a scratch on it! I did put the wheels, stem and seat just to check the fit and I can't believe the difference! When comparing online, the differences are very subtle, but this bike absolutely positively fits! It is soooooo much more comfortable than the Quest. I didn't realize how stretched out I was.
Can't wait to get it together!

Funny, my DH has the same attitude. The creative string of expletives as he tries to un-muck things is pretty entertaining to listen to. Originally Posted by uforgot
