    Once you settle with the insurance company, then you might consider upgrading the components to your new Cervelo.

    Give them the current prices. Get a quote, or print the page off a website. If you bring the bike in to a Cervelo dealer the easiest thing to do is buy the replacement off them, and they will obviously give you a quote beforehand. No need to waste time looking for bargains, if they're going to pay anyway. Get nice cages, saddle, etc, Make sure you get new wheels too if they've been damaged. Don't be shy. I'm not condoning spurious claims (I really hate that) but you have been seriously inconvenienced by just having to go through this and be without the bike for a period of time. Don't accept any allowance for depreciation, it's not like a car.

    STICK IT TO THE MAN!!!

    Just kidding - you appear to be a very stand up guy. The world needs more people like you. I am sure everything will turn out for the best in the end, and the important thing is, is that you are ok. Too many are not so lucky.

    Remember, 'What goes around, comes around'.

    So, everyone, I got a check from the insurance company. They offered to pay replacement cost for everything damaged (even the pedals that were slightly scratched) and only took 5% off of the frame price. This seemed fair to me, so rather than arguing for that minimal amount, I took it happily. Thanks again for your support and advice!
