Good on you, Chains!!!!! Talk about about a confidence boost, huh? You'll remember that in the future when you want to do something that's hard for you. You'll think.............. hmmmmmmm, I walked into that intimidating bike shop and it all worked out!

kpc, better if Chain answers about her bike, but I can tell you when I think of Colnago bikes, I think a Lust-for bike! They are Italian-made, have biking history behind them, lots of rides in Le Tour. They are beautifully made machines. I don't know what the Giovanna model looks like...... couldn't find it online. kpc, is there a website with a photo of your bike?
