Bikes: Rossetti Vertigo

The Rossetti Vertigo has arrived

Finally, the day has arrived. After five long days of waitng for this to arrive from Miami, it's here. It was delivered at 11:30. The UPS guy just rang the doorbell and took off. Here's a picture I got of him getting back in his truck.



Took the box in the garage and started putting it together. For some reason it took lokger than I expected. By 12:30 I realized I had no idea how to install the RD. So, I called the LBS and they said I could bring it down. By 1:15 is was at the shop and they hooked me up (for $30). Back home by 2:30. I had a soccer game to coach at 4:30 so I only had time to snap a few pictures and get in a short ride. Here she is:

EDIT-seat and bars have been properly adjusted in later pictures...kind of wonky here






It's actually a pretty comfy seat.



Taking her out for a proper ride in the morning. Should have a more detailed report tomorrow. My buddy who rides a sweet Cervelo couldn't believe how light this thing is. Wheels weighed in at 1465g. I'm guessing it's sub-17lbs. So far so good. Fit and finish is as good as ANY bike I've seen. The SRAM is going to take a while to get used to, but I like how it feels so far. Even the computer has Rossetti stamped on it. Pretty happy, but it's late and I have to get up early to ride. Hope you enjoy the pictures. If you decide to get a Rossetti, tell them I sent you.
