$2000 is peanuts for an Italian thoroughbred. Would'nt even buy you a cheapo family package holiday deal to Spain. Toni is right these are the legends and stuff of dreams along with the Colnalgos and the other famous Italian classic's.

Compare this to the crazy sky high prices paid for British frames. Whoever won a major continental road race or a tour on a Hetchins, Hurlow or Butler?

These are the Ferrari's, Maserati's and Ford GT40's of the cycling world.

Pedigree race results and world class craftsman frame builders.
