Big problem for me!

I ended up selling my Saronni Master frameset.

I like the Precisa, but the the stem issue was something I couldn't get past.

With a different saddle this would definitely be hot in my book. It's ALMOST getting away with the saddle, but deserves a much cooler one.

Thanks gomango, likewise!

The Behringer is getting a rebuild right now for a more classic look. I'll throw Jenny on the block, even though I know she is hot already!

The crank is a Topline road. No idea about the chainring, other than that it's Campy.

Ambrosio Excellight SSC. Hard to source in the US, but I bough a set for my Marinoni build when I lived in Canada. These are on par with Open Pro's and are silver.



This might be a better perspective for the rims

1980 Mondia Super. It's the only all-vintage bike I have left, except the Merckx. Some Campy bits (hubs, headset), but mostly Suntour Superbe:

Merckx with Campy is almost always hot, but MXL/MAX just seem exotic and extra hot.

You made the soda can as hot as you could, and I dig the white bar tape and saddle - but it's still a Cannondale. Not hot...bulbous.

Bill Boston tandem is even more hot because it's for a couple. That thing is just insanely awesome and en fuego.
