    Ya, the main reason I'm looking at the Veloce even though I love the Donna color and I think the frame is just about perfect, is for the upgraded componentry. But I figure I can always upgrade even though it'll cost $$$

    Going now to SF to go check out the Veloce. They also have the Giant there so I can ride them side by side which will be nice.

    hey there. Not only is Campy more adjustable, but they are rebuildable. with shimanos, they just throw them away when they need service and sell you new ones.

    I am comparing my veloce to a raleigh and a trek. This bike LOVES TO GO!!
    You might look around this forum (for an older thread) it sounds stupid, but color DOES matter, a lot of us
    have been unsatisfied because the bikes they are looking at or even the ones they
    own are colors they themselves do not appreciate...
