Benotto Question
Anyone help me out here. I just go this Benotto on escam(don't have a camera, here's the ebay page)
I get this and everything is good on it, nice pantoed chrome fork, columbus tubing, nice thinned lugs and lugwork, mitered bb, campy dropouts and a repaint by cycle art.
So I got it last night and the decals on it are a cheap ass vinyl like sticker, about walmart quality and stuck on over the clear and the columbus tubing sticker is under the clear on the TOP TUBE, not on the seatube where usually the 531 or columbus tubing stickers usually are.
Do any of the Benotto owners have these cheapass stickers on their Benotto frames. If Cycle Art did a complete repaint, putting the Columbus sticker on the top tube and just adding vinyl type stickers over the clear just doesn't seem like a very good job.
Anyone else ever see this?? I have never purchased a frame before with cheap sticker decals before.
I know in the Italian food chain, Benotto's are nowwhere near Cinelli, DeRosa,Pinarello, etc. quality, are the Benotto's decent quality frames?
I was going to build this up as a fixed daily rider anyway, so I guess I will just peel the damn stickers off anyway..or I might just split the fork and frame up and sell..
