Why thank you. One of the few perks of living at home while you go to college. I can blow, excuse me, carefully spend, all of my money on bicycles, I mean investments. For some reason though I keep loosing money when I go to resell my investments. Lol

This is perfect. Story of my life, especially with an order for a TR500 in right now.

You order one up from blackrock? I just sent those guys a parts list for my new build. Havnt decided on a frame yet. I told them to give me prices on an undead, a Wilson, a v10 and the tr500. I heard they won't be in until April or May which sketches me out. Could ruin summer if it's late.

Right?!? Geez that guy has a new bike every week. What I get is highly dependent on price. I'm not buying a used.

Yeah I went through them as they are my go-to LBS and I race for their team. They aren't late with their predictions, if anything they are early. I ordered a 450 from them last spring and Curtis said it would be about two weeks out. Turned out it came by the end of the week, and I built it that day. My friend's wilson came in a week, the V10's come in about the same time frame too. Next time I go in I'll shoot you a message if anything changes.

Ya Theyre great guys. I agree they were early when I order my 450 in 2012 but my covert was months late. It's not them I'm worried about its transition. With a new model, production problems and changes etc could cause problems. I know thats significantly less likely with an aluminum bike than a carbon bike but still.
