My point to Collin when we were discussing this after I forced him to get the Miyata Pro was that he simply can't let the Superbe Pro group go on that frame. I like either idea, strip the frame keep the group, swap the Pro group to the Miyata, keep the Superbe. Either way I agree with BBM...there just isn't a value add with either group on the frame.
