The cheaper Sugino BB is the Sugino 68, but you might as well get the 75.

I say either get the Kilo and go cheaper, or get the Bareknuckle and go all italian with it. Miche hubs, Miche BB and crankset (which Im sure is cheaper than the Sugino stuff), but I would go clincher if it is going to be a daily or almost daily ridden bike.

I have a BK and love it. The kilo's are also nice, but the BK's are pricey. Go all italian if you get one. Or just get an IRO Mark V Pro, the frame/fork is around 285 IIRC.

I spend around 1700 for my BK, but I bought parts whenever I worked overtime, so it took a little while to get it together, Im glad I took the time to do it right. Im thankful I can afford nice **** now.
