Yea Keywin!

As for the cages, the Kings are classic and I understand your interest in them for this build, but the Mandibles are far superior. The Kings do not have a full wrap around the bottle the same way the Arundel's do. I find that with the Kings under a standing effort the bottles often shift a bit in the cage, left - right. I have never had an eject with the Kings, because you can adjust them down by hand to hold the bottle better, but the Mandibles are flawless and simply work. The choice is clear in my opinion. You can also do the Dave O cages if you prefer something that looks a little beefier. That model is only marginally heavier, but saves some coins and they are also bombproof.

Thanks stolichnaya for your input.
I do have the kings in my Ti frame and really like them. But also interested in the Arundel...
Also have a discount on them... Will decide today.

i didn't know too... the problem is with the supply of XCR from Columbus... so they tell me, right now the only part that is missing is the 33mm seattube from Columbus (that Columbus found is same frame builder)... that were to shipped 2 weeks ago ... but didn't ... etc... because Columbus forgot... so they were to ship last week and i still don't know... if they shipped or not...

9 months have passed and yes it's killing me... a lot of emails were send requesting good news, but what i can tell you is that is starting to became very desapointing... and frustating...etc...

but what is really really desapointing is that i don't have a final date - neither for the frame to start building or delivered...

Let's see if the long wait pays off... I hope so...

If i've ordered at the same time from FESTKA, would be riding the frame 6 months now, but i wanted brazzed not welded... so i will have to wait!!!!!
