If you're going to cover the wall with opaque curtains anyway, why not put something behind them like compressed fiberglass, egg crate foam, cork tiles, acoustic ceiling tiles, or some combination?
it ain't getting CHEAPER!!
ot: since i'll have to delay purchase of my racer bike which gives me more time to read up some more, does anyone have any experience with the SRAM Rival group set in comparison w/ shimano ultegra?

Weight and looks detubo. I would go SRAM if your comparing the ultegra. If its dura-ace your choosing from Shimano, then its a different story. Try also the Campy grouppo.
Hey, when you get your bike, join us in Ayala Alabang or Daang Haari. Its always fun. Good luck on your bike. Full carbon ka ba?
