Anyone know how much a Legend frameset costs?
Also, Ben work with you on the fit/design then farm it out to be welded (in USA?) by using non-USA (?) sourced tubes? Would love to know the details yet am hesitant to simply call them to find out these important (to me) details that would have been helpful to put on the website.

Website looks good to me....clean and concise. Seems like they are going the Firefly full custom route. You dream it we can build it.

Might be the smart play.

I wouldn't be hesitant to call. If you get Ben, he's usually very accommodating.

The website is a huge improvement. I'm not sure I'm a fan of the rectangular shaping on the Legend tubes (and the rear dropout) but it does provide a unique design element ot differentiate from other ti builders. And its great to see that the concours line starts below 8k so there's a lower price alternative to the legend.

Also good to see who's on the team and doing what. I personally don't have a probelm with this approach. Similar to what Steve and Andy Hampsten have always done and they produce fine bikes (2 of which I own).

I'm done buying bikes but if I was shopping for a new ti bike I would include Serotta in the list of builders to consider.
