I bought a soma double cross frame about 4 years back and built it up with a bunch of extra parts I had in the basement. Campy compact crank, dura ace 9 speed shifters and derailleur, avid shorty center pulls and head CX wheels. All steel and rides great. Took it to northern MI last weekend for some Gravel riding, double track and even some light single track.
I also got a great deal on a felt f5x. I use it mostly for CX and Gravel racing. Nice bike running ultegra and discs. While I like the disc brakes certain pads are shit in rain and sandy conditions.

When I die, I'd like to go peacefully. In my sleep. Like my grandfather.
Not screaming, like the passengers in his car...
