What a find! What is the serial number of the frame? It's stamped on the rear dropout. Post pics for us, too. I find it amazingly unbelievable that anyone would throw away a carbon frame in good condition. It's just mind-boggling. What color is the frame? For further information, you can send the serial number to Calfee to find out who bought the frame originally. What a lucky guy you are!

You may be able to transfer the warranty, which on a Tetra is 25 years.
If I were you I would buy a lottery ticket or go to Las Vegas because you are one lucky guy. Not sure if you were familiar with Calfee before you stuck gold, but they make an oustanding bike.
