Finally! Here she is. Ain't she pretty?

I picked her up last week. The frameset is a 2001 Trek Hilo, but almost all of he components are new/upgrades. It's a DA/Ultegra mix (DA rear and shifters, Ultegra crankset and front). The race wheels are Rolf Vector Pros. I thought the 650's would feel weird, but I really like them.

I need to replace the stem and install the new pedals on Saturday and she'll be 100% ready to go.

It is indeed aluminum. The previous owner's husband is a bike mechanic, which explains the good condition, not to mention all the upgrades.
