Y'all: As another just mentioned and good point, too: if it's not a 'stocking' bike, why not leave that part of the menu as is?
Roadeo, Atlantis, customs, Hillborne (altho this one is stocking, right?), etc. can all stay, yes? It's always a bit sad when a favorite disappears, so keep as many as possible. Me? After 12 years, I'm having my RAM repainted (paint nearly perfect, but some corrosion on the lug shoulders, etc.), it is such a very nice frame. As said, sad to see it go (altho Roadeo is most suitable replacement).
