It doesnt seem there are many reviews on this frame. I am looking to upgrade from a mercier kilo tt to this. I would like the stiffness of it and seems like a real track frame up there with the fuji track pro and the bianchi pista concept. I would also be riding to the track and was wondering how it would fair on the road, I understand that it is a aluminum frame with harsh ride on the rode i don't mind.

Hmm, I'd never heard of the Coltello till now; it looks nice. Apart from the rear triangle it looks a lot like a Track Pro. As for stiffness and riding on the road, it has a carbon fork which should mitigate the harshness of the alu frame. You should be fine.

I rode a friends Coltello on the street. It was probably the stiffest bike I've been on... thing was nuts.
