I forgot to add that this bike was a hoot in the shop. Hornet Sports on Guam deals mainly in race stuff. Carbon/Aluminum - bars to low - tires too skinny or monster downhill type stuff. They had customers asking about the bike as they built it up for me. It really drew a lot of attention. One of the men I work with wants one.
