Patrick, Nope, different Eric. Am actually probably not selling the Fargo. There is/was a slight chance a Bleriot could cross my path. If I purchased it, would need to get rid of one bike. Hence the possibility of the Fargo going away.
Odds are highly against it, though. It is the bike I rode my century on and is really comfortable for my style of riding. My Fargo is set up like this - http://tinyurl.com/3y5t2we Basically, a stock XT build with Woodchipper bars, Brooks saddle, fenders and Carradice bag. The bike came with 2.1 tires and appears to be able to take 2.4 with mud/broken spoke clearance. But back to Bobby B's Bombadil - can't wait to see how he builds it up. And to hear his comments on how it handles versus the Fargo.
