The MegaExo is on the list. Back ordered until 1/15/05 at least at
CC. I like the big gear also, but my legs cannot seem to support it

The original plan was to go with the Kyserium Sl and have the silver
outline decals. I would add silver cages and have that Oakland
Raiders Black & Silver thing going. Topo's throw off the plan.
