Sure, if you're connecting it to pro racing like they were there's no denying Pinarello's status. I get the impression that among C&V collectors it's a very small step down -- not really a "craftsman" brand and not particularly uncommon. That, of course, has nothing to do with the video.

What I really got out of the video is that I need a Bianchi, a Colnago and a Legnano. I already knew that about Bianchi and Colnago. I didn't know I needed a Legnano, and I'm a little disappointed to see that the horrid baby-poop green one is the one I need. Also, I learned that I've been pronouncing "celeste" incorrectly, unless that's some weird Brit-ism like "aluminium." (I'm pleased to report that my browser's spell checker wants me to fix "aluminium.")
