I just learned something interesting...Cannondale has an upgrade program where they will buy back used frames on trade towards new ones--customers keep their original components. This is likely what I would end up doing, as I have been very happy with my Cannondale (and our LBS, which is owned by a dear friend) and my Shimano 105 guts with the shorter-reach shifters. Eventually I could swap out SRAM components when my Shimano stuff needs replacing.
