Anyone ride or own a Tommasini Sintesi road bike? My friend tells me to go with one outfitted with Ultegra and he states that it's the best bike for the $$$. Any comments??

I love the look of this bike! The chrome and lug work is just amazing. I believe Colorado Cyclist was pushing this bike for w/ full Ultegra this summer for ~$1600, sounds like a great deal to me.

Hard to beat if you like the lugged and brazed classic look.Never heard a bad work about Tommasini.Got an older one and it is great.

A nice frame indeed.
However Id go with Campagnolo Veloce or Centaur over the Ultegra.

I gotta agree with H20.1. Man, don't go putting no Japanese components on an Italian Columbus lugged steel frame. :mad: It's got to be Campy or nothin'. :)

With due respect for high end Shimano, I must concur with H20.1 and SteveE. A frame that sweet has to be built with full Campy.
It makes my mouth water.

That bike has to have Campy.
There's serious issues involved here....

Five... and not Record... as much as I love Record, this frame needs that classic Chorus gleam...

I know its an old thread BUT I am thinking of buying the Sintesi Whistler Frame and building it up myself with full Ultegra (I would go with Campy if I could afford it!!)....the online retailer does do the same frame with Ultegra but I want to custom some of the parts on it, and I can do it for about the same price and have a wonderful time building my first bike!
I am just wondering if there are any new comments?
