My first real (ie Italian) bike was a SLX Pinarello Montello (that I still own - you'll find pictures on other threads here). I always wanted a Gilco tubed Colnago, which I now own in the form of a mid 90s Master light. Never having enough steel (or Pinarellos), I just added an early 80s pinarello Record (Columbus SL). They all ride slightly differently but Italian steel is in a class by itself. (probably BS, but if you haven't tried one you'll never know).
