LOL!  It's a Christmas Miracle!

When I picked up my RoadUno complete, it was one of the scratched ones. 
 They opened three boxes and gave me my pick, and said they were figuring 
out how much of a discount they were going to give.  I offered to take the 
worst scratched one for a free upgrade to a 26.8mm S83, and they happily 
said yes to that.   

My forthcoming CHG build will have a different but timeless 26.8mm seatpost 
on it...
