Debatable and I'll admit many don't agree with me. Faliero(sp?) Masi was one of the biggest names in the 70s. Built frames for most of the greats of the 60s and 70s and their bikes were considered amongst the very best. They came to California (from Italy) and continued to produce high quality bikes. Then the Cal. company closed and after a long series of legal bouts the name "Masi" was bought and bikes are sold under that name. I understand many of them to be high quality. However, the Masi family cannot use their name on bikes in America. As someone who lusted after a Masi in the 70s and still trolls eBay from time to time looking for a "real" one I have a hard time swallowing this situation.

May well be my problem but it is what it is.
