And as some of you may or may not have noticed i bought a lugged steel italian frame. A colnago master.
I got a master because of the simple fact that none and i mean NONE of the of the other brands were in stock anywhere in europe except cinelli and those were only in stock in colors i didnt want (wanted red).
all other makers and retailers had a 40-120 day delivery period.
F that S imo. But colango was available in my size and color right away. so a colnago it was! colnago obviously know a bit more about doing biz than the rest of the the bunch, and therefore have distributors with stock at hand for immediate delivery.
"you cant sell from an empty cart."
and thats how it works.
