New happy Tommasini owner


Hello all.
I got this beautiful bike few weeks ago, I cleaned up and did some TLC.
Looks gorgeous with original paint (aside some tiny chrome pitting up on the rear triangle), overall great bike.
I love this bike! I could not wait to own a Tommasini, and the components are in great shape too (Campy 8 speed Chorus).
This should be around 1990/91 build for the 15th Anniversary.
One thing I want to share with you, is that this bike compare to my other vintage (SLX/SL Tubing with 1980's Campy Victory) is mush heavier (1.5 pound circa)
I have a 1986 Pinarello Treviso and a 1990's Zullo both with Campy Victory and both are lighter than the Tommasini with the same size 56.
Can it be that 8 speed Chorus group is heavier then 6 speed Victory? The frame set is a SLX Super Prestige so shouldn't be lighter then SL frame set? Any thought?
