Cool bike. Forgive me if there's some aspect to this that I'm ignorant of, but why is your stand-over height a good 8" less than your inseam? Just curious why you'd pick a bike that small. |

Heres mine! Nothing overly fancy, but it rides well. 2007 Tommaso Monza. Looking to build a carbon bike soon.

I am 183 cm 6 feet, the bike is a 57 cm. It is not small at all. It is very low at the front because of the shortish TT headtube and the 650 wheels. It lets me get a huge drop from the seat to bars.

My classic here. This is what you get with someone low on money paying for their own bike, not pretty.

My ALLOY Bikes win over my STEEL bikes any day . At present I've got 2 aluminium framed bikes - training bike and racing bike(both with carbon forks) and have got a well designed steel framed bike(had it for 11 years but don't ride it now) and have had other steel framed bikes - Pinarello, Raleigh, Carlton etc. Would rather have the alloys anyday - even on rougher roads. |

Yeah me too. Much happier on the aluminum Fondriest with carbon than on the old steel bike I had.

heres mine, Specialized Tarmac Comp - 05' I believe. My first bike. Love it, but then again it's my first bike. I road my freinds Roubiax a couple of times but find this much better for me.
