Thanks, Roland. That just about answers my question.
And yesss it's a caliper, not canti sorry. I'm a terminology nazi too, which now makes me a hypocrite.
I just went by my LBS and they have a brand new Bianchi Pista in blue in my size (53cm) on sale for $425. It's tempting... hmmm.
PS thanks to everyone else for their feedback.
