I have a TIG welded Serotta Ti (Colorado) and it is the best handling bike I've ever ridden. I think the Serotta frame geometry is highly evolved and the ride is absolutely fabulous, a perfect blend of stability and responsiveness.
Vintage content: I've compared the Serotta with the likes of Singer, Hetchins, Cinelli, etc and I really believe the Serotta is the best riding bike period. Maybe not the prettiest, but the best ride / handling.

I'd also be curious about the group's appraisal of Serotta's conspicuously lugged CSI.
