I measured it today at work, and it is indeed a 78* head tube, and a 73* seat tube? Why do I always end up with the oddball stuff? All I wanted was a black Italian bike. I may swap the parts over to my other Columbus frame, the 85 Super Sport. This frame is awesome and corners like a bobcat on steroids, but I honestly think it is too much for me. I don't want to get tired or lazy someday and end up on the pavement for my trouble. Yes it is fun, but I can't see myself doing more than a few miles at a time on it. I also have the Club Fuji, but would it seem silly to have an 8 speed Campy group on a Japanese bike? Am I overthinking it?,,,,BD
