Xeney, that Soma is luscious!
I now have bike-envy. Please tell me it doesn't ride very well or something.

Well, at the moment it is a TERRIBLE ride because it doesn't have wheels or brakes or handlebars or, you know, a seat. Does that help?
I just ordered the crankset and bottom bracket. I almost went with Shimano for this bike because Campy is becoming so impractical -- no triples, and I can't find a compact double with 170 crank arms -- but my husband has some new Veloce ten-speed shift levers he'll give me, and I really love the Campy components on my Bianchi, so I just found a new old stock triple Veloce crank and the right bottom bracket. He's also giving me a rear derailleur and cassette so I don't have much more to buy.

Oh, wow. The frame and fork are in my house. It is SO PRETTY. The parts are starting to come in -- the headset is installed, the crankset is here (Veloce 10 speed triple; I found a new one on eBay), my husband is giving me brake levers. We are about to place an order for most of the rest of the components, and I have decided to swipe the wheels off my Bianchi ... it's hard to find Campy wheels that would look right on this bike, but those will do well and that bike would look better with Ventos anyway.
I will take pictures when it is more put together.
