My main bike is a Cervelo R3 but I bought a Bianchi Imola a year ago (same frame as the Vigorelli). I bought it to convert it into a travel bike with S&S couplers (to fit in an airline compatible case). I really like the steel frame. It is a very comfortable, very stable frame that is great for long rides. It isn't as stiff or fast as my Cervelo but it was also much less expensive. It is a little heavy compared to even some lighter steel frames but not bad. I could easily live with the Bianchi as my only bike. I bought mine from a dealer on Ebay for about 2/3rd the original price in the winter. That was a steal.
