Absolutely not. Why be stuck with the 26 TPI BB threading (do I remember correctly?). There is so much out there. I bought a full 531 Mondia with Nervex lugs labelled as a Tour de Suisse with nice parts from a bike shop for $150 this summer. (Notice how I don't regard myself as stuck with Swiss threading?) And at the time I wondered if I was getting carried away again. A Super Course would be a good choice at $75 though.
