Wow, that's very nice. I think it's a 49cm - based on the wheel base length they quoted...
I think it's too big for me. Thank goodness! ;)
Ha,ha,ha...it's even too big for some of us 'shorties'. Wow, that is one nice looking bike. I am in the market for a new commuter and that one is pretty, but alas, too big (and too costly) for me....Quote:

I've recently pulled off the Chorus shifters for my Torelli and I could either put some Record carbon shifters on the bike, or get something else if the person so desires.
Additionally I would be willing to swap out saddles or sell without a saddle and pedals since these types of items are more personal choices.
These are the measurements that I took in my garage:
Specs (all c-c):
Seat tube: 49.5cm
Top tube: 52.5cm
Chainstay: 42.2cm
Front center: 59.5 cm
Stand over height: 77.5cm – tough to tell exactly, garage floor isn’t probably the flattest thing going.
BB drop: Again, not the most accurate measurement but it looks to be in the ~65mm range.
If there are any questions or interest, please let me know.

Wow, Conorb. Thanks for sharing the pix.
I'm happy to note...it's way too small for me, however! <<whew!!>>
Anybody know anything about that rear "self energizing system" brake setup?
I know you! We met at the NAHBS. You make some durn purty bikes.Quote:

I would lose it.
Someone would steal it.
It is too big- all bikes are too big.
I don't like the way Campy feels in my hands.
I suddenly have the urge to crash every time I ride.
Yep, that was me. Thanks for saying so. NAHBS in Portland this year was crazy busy.Quote:
