Here's mine!



It's a Latina 'road issue' model, made of columbus tubing. I bought the frame on ebay; I have another one that's a bit smaller in purple it but it has a cracked dropout and no fork... was just looking for a replacement fork and decided to just buy the whole frame. I built it up with a mix of 6400 and 6500 stuff, I had a standard road double on there but my knees can't handle the tall gears so I swapped it out for a sugino triple and a new FD. It works well with the brifters if I don't cross-chain too much. I just put on a new pair of vittoria corsa tires and they are pretty nice. I've used the bike on a few brevets even, 200k and a 300k. The saddle is a bit of a beast though and I did put a brooks c17 on it to do those brevets.
