Beautiful bike!!!! And the honey Brooks will look great on it!
(and if you feel the honey leather looks out of place, try switching your bar tape to something that matches the Brooks a little. or get some leather Brooks bar tape....)

Wow, your Volpe looks like a fun bike with a great personality. My eros bianchi would like a longer stem so could I borrow some arm length?

I think it does, now that its mounted! I didn't know Brooks made bar tape...that would be sweet! Probably out for a bit, but maybe someday.

It's hard to find proper saddle position when you're in pain to begin with. I have it mostly level and I think at the right height, but I hardly know what right feels like.
But it's pretty. And Proofide smells soooo good...
