I have a 2002 Fuga, which I just got last Sept (new). It was in the Gita warehouse all this time waiting me! It's alu with carbon fork and stays. She's white and silver with red and black "Merckxs". Really unusual color scheme for Eddy. I'll someday post pics if I ever get a camera!
I admired the pics of your bike you recently posted!!! Sweet! Yours is the newer version of mine. I can see how you can ride 200 miles on her (well, not really, but kind of
).

What about Giant?
We have a couple of Trinitys in large sizes which the lads in the house have used for road racing, and converted one into a TT bike.
My partner and eldest sons are all 6'2" - 6'3.5"
Courage does not always roar. Sometimes, it is the quiet voice at the end of the day saying,
"I will try again tomorrow".

RR, I think she was referring to my machine, though your tall lads are very intriguing Originally Posted by RoadRaven

The new Madones are Amazing! They come in 2 geometries so he can get a slightly more upright ride (30mm) if he is interested. I know Trek doesn't have the splash of a Cervelo, but the new Madone's are Amazing!

I was referring to Red's Merckx. Since we're Merckx sisters. (I do like male tallness, though. 
)
