Picked it up today from having cables ran (the only part of the build I didn't do myself). My stable is now devoid of 26ers.

Thanks to the guys at Bike Bling: Kerry--for some sweet discounts and Mike and Rob in service for their help too!! Also thanks to my Nomad, my road bike and my 5 Spot frame for making the ultimate sacrifice so the RIP could be a reality.

Save for a discount on the frame price, I spared no expense on the build and I'm really stoked to have it done--just in time for Sedona next week too!!

Red cable crimps. Now that is almost anal attention to detail!! Mike at BB had that idea:

All I need now is a red chain guide to finish it off.

Bastard! All top notch! I have been thinking the brown/turd/UPS color looks awesome for Mojos as well.

Your saddle looks way to comfortable however.... :D
You need on of those hard-ass carbon fiber ones!

Bike Bling has (had?) those Brown Ano frames for $1230. Being that the standard MSRP is $1799, I couldn't resist the savings. I would have rather had the Hot Tamale red, but I was pleasantly surprised by how good the brown ano looks.

I was blown away by the Hot Tamale color they trotted out at Interbike.....was lusting for that myself. Ah, the choices (dreaming that is).

Nice Rig! Congrats. Check out BBG Bashguards, they have a nice one in red that is drilled like a brake rotor. Light, purty and a life time warranty to boot!
