It won't be ready by Friday, the fork doesn't get painted until tomorrow at Waterford, then they have to ship it to my LBS - and THEN they have to have time to build it properly.....
Arrrrrrrgh, this is torture!
It may not be ready on Friday, but it should be ready next week sometime

And they ordered the wrong handlebars...but really I can't blame them for that. We started with Shimano XT shifters and wound up with SRAM XO twist shifters (and SRAM X7/9 drive-train). My fitter couldn't reach me today so we can't settle on the replacement before Thursday... hopefully they have something in stock that will work.
That is ok though, regardless of these little hitches, they do great work at my LBS and I don't want them to rush the assembly - as badly as I want this bike. It will be worth the wait.
I just want my beautiful new bike....whimper

Impatience wouldn't help... You will certainly be seeing some photos, no doubt about that - everyone has been so patient with me on this bike
