I purchased a Masi Vincere and it seems to be a decent bike. I did a few things to it to fit me better like different pedals for my wide feet. It is similar to many bikes in its price range but I liked the paint job and it was 550 bucks as opposed to the 620 to 650 for similar trek or fuji models . It sounds like an Italian bike but it is made in Taiwan so I named it Maria Chang after a old girl friend.
