Forgive me. This question may not help you at all, but it may resolve
a few questions that linger in *my* mind.

There may be a misplaced modifier in your first sentence. Which
should fit you like a glove? The Waterford frame or the good friend??

I'm not making a judgment either way. I'd just like to know.

As to your question (again, presuming that you're still looking to buy
the components yourself. It's not clear whether you're asking for a
parts source or a good local bike shop (in which case, we'd need to
know where you live)), there are many, many reputable online sources,
including:

www.bikenashbar.com­
www.performancebike­.com
www.harriscyclery.c­om

You may want to enter your desired items into the browswer at
www.froogle.com and let their search engine comparison shop for you a
bit.

As a follow up, the term "build kit" is quite frequently used to
indicate "all the parts, except for the frame and fork, needed to go
from a frame to a working bike."

I bought all of the parts for my Waterford from Lickton's and was pleased
with my experience. Their total price was significantly lower than anyone
else would offer. It was very nice to place my order with someone who
wanted to help and knows more than I do about bikes.
The total price I paid for the build "kit" was less than what Lickton's
sells parts for separately on their website.
