Road Test/Bike Review (1989) America's Road Superbikes -- Intro / SEROTTA Colorado

Bicycle Guide (Jul 1989) featured a section reviewing the latest road "superbikes". The bikes were SEROTTA Colorado, KLEIN Quantum, KESTREL 4000, and MERLIN Titanium. This multi-article, multi-author section lumped all bike specs near the end and concluded with the split-page sidebar Blatant Opinions. I'll organize it my way by posting the Intro and first bike with its specs brought forward. Over the next few days I'll make separate Road Test / Bike Review posts of the other three bikes in a similar manner. If you prefer to see the complete article as published, I'll include a link to the PDF in the final post of this topic.

This post presents the section Intro followed by the SEROTTA Colorado review and its specs.
