The Techno and Sintesi look really sweet - I just stumbled on some pics in the past couple of days. Way nicer than the Oria-tubed bike that started this thread - they're lightyears apart in terms of workmanship. I've been on the lookout for an older pressed-lug Tommasini for some time - those are the ones to own, IMO, and they're very scarce. But if I was in the market for a contemporary steel lugged frame (which I am) and not going custom (which I am), I think a Tommasini would be on the pointy end of my peloton of choices.
