It says Pro-Strada on it, but it was also repainted by Cycleart before I got it. It's 43cm C-T. Probably the smallest you can fit 700c wheels on. My wife had ridden nothing but department store bikes before we met, and was blown away by how well the Medici handled. I just can't get her to go riding with me. :( She swears a tandem with a freewheeling stoker postion would get her on the bike for rides.
