You might even consider knocking it down an extra notch, just because of the Syncro.
Well, I know that mine is not the highest end Miele, all I was looking for was to see who else actually had an equivalent or higher end Miele out there...
As a side note to all the comments, I already have 4 road bikes... I don't need another one, so That's why this one will be a fixie... But it can always be switched over to a roadie again in the future... I have 9 bikes so they can't all be roadies...
... about the fork... You are right... so I looked a little deeper and it is originally equipped with a chrome fork... I realllly don't like that chrome fork though as I find it makes the frame look cheaper... I like this one Much better... so I'm going to keep it with the frame... it will at least be a conversation piece...
As a newbie you will have to fill me in... what is SYNCRO ??
