Sir, you say that as if "Italian" is a good thing. Where can good frames co me from? Maybe I should rephrase that to say which country can good frames come from?

Nothing remotely Italian or even remotely Masi about that frame (except for the sticker). It's a Taiwanese hunk of junk made by Haro and bearing a na me it doesn't deserve.The Vigorelli still turns out exceptionally crafted f rames in the old tradition, many from the hands of Faliero's son, Alber to.They are badged "Milano Sport" or "Alberto Masi" when available in the U nited States.
