I've got one of those later, Basso built Pogliaghi's - a 1993 model I believe. It runs neck-and-neck with the Palo Alto as my favorite bike, and I regularly run it for long distances - last Saturday 114 miles and 9500 feet of climbing. Love love love it.

Just having some fun with you, Kurt. I'd have bought it already, but I'm not sure I wanna shell out 6 bills for an Italian bike with 9 speed Dura-ace.... >shudder<
