I said "Do what you like... No purple... I'll see it when I pick it up..."

I pick it up Monday and they are holding me to a "no pic embargo"!!

No pics till Monday! I am nervous & excited! Can't wait!! As soon as I have pics, I'll it them up! It's a bit of fun and makes the process more exciting!!

Nice, very nice.

I'm less keen on most of the 'GTS' finishes, but yours is making me wonder what I'll do on mine now... :noidea:

Darren doesn't like to see anything other than Chris King Ti bottle cages on his bikes does he?! They've ALL got them...

Nice touch though :thumbup:

Wow, that looks steller. Great weight, too. Really love that paint job -- you owe Jared a nice steak. Enjoy and give us a ride report once you've run it in a bit.
