I keep going to the Bianchi pictures.... man, those really are pretty bikes! And Campy...

I'm hoping to get a Campy Veloce compact double (on sale at Nashbar for $140) and use the Bikejournal coupon (15% off) next week. Pay day is a'coming and I've already spent my check!
Please excuse the hijack, but roguedog, you've really got us going all over the place!

I sort of fell into a titanium Seven Axiom. I don't race, I just ride for fitness. My Seven is off the shelf, not custom - although you can customize it to give any sort of ride you like. The Seven is SWEET! I say it rides like silk on the road. Mine is smoooooth. Compliant, quick, responsive, but never harsh. It knows where I want to go before I do.
Two words: Love. It.

BTW, I have a FSA SLK-compact crank on it, and I like that, too.
I do have a soft spot for Bianchis. They are sweet, too. The wheelbase of the Eros I had was much longer than my current bike, so it had a very different ride. Not better, not worse. Just different.
