I have to agree about the colour as it's so iconic and beautiful. This is everything the 90's was about. from the Ciussi Ti bottle cages to the Campy Record groupset, to the Ti Flite saddle, to the alloy frame and is that a titanium seatpost? It all screams the best of the 90's. So good to read it is stiff and responsive as the 90's demanded. What a great bike to own.
