unworhty1, try doing a search on "Ross", titles only. There is a fair amount of information available. I ran a thread when I picked up my Ross Signature earlier this year. Apparently, Ross made a few, true, mid-level bikes. Some would say they were upper level bikes. The original Signature frames were made in the USA, then transferred to either Taiwan or Japan. They used triple butted Ishiwata tubing. I'm not at all familiar with the model you found, but it sounds similiar. My Signature is too small for me, but I had a lot of fun with it while I continued to search for a bike more my size. It still has a great ride and if it were my size, I would probably never sell it. Good luck with your Ross.
