Speaking of the Mondial, I see on your site that the smallest size is 52cm, but on the Colossi site they also show a 50cm and 48cm. Are those smaller sizes also available and are they meant for 650c wheels, since they have a lot less BB drop ? Do the smaller sizes have a sloping top tube ? Can it be ordered with downtube water bottle cage mounts ?

Having Colossi add bottle cage mounts isn't a problem.

Not really holding back, typing is just a bit of a ***** at the moment. Crashed on my bike, broke my collarbone and three ribs.
No cars involved or anything. Angie and I were coming to an intersection about to take a left. The light was yellow and I assumed she was going to blast through it, as there was only one car waiting for the light to change. She intended to but decided to stop at the last second. I was already in "go mode" and slammed into her. Fun times.

Ugh. Was she injured as well or was it a case of the pitcher hitting the stone? Get better.

She went down too and sprained her wrist but nothing major.
No bike damage either except for some bent 3T bars and a shredded Turbo saddle.

Nothing feels good when you have broken ribs. Laughing. Peeing. Pooping. Breathing. Hell, just getting out of bed in the morning is awful.
Hope you recover quick, man.

I was looking ahead and saw the whole thing happening. If I hadn't been, I wouldn't have turned to try avoiding the crash and it would have been much worse.
That dummy I made that comment about in the jackass thread was more concerned with whatever computer device was mounted on his stem and ate the back of a minivan as a result.
