I'm looking at building up a classic Italian Steel bike and narrowing my search down to these two.
Is there a big difference in build quality, tubing, ride quality, etc between the two?
I love the Sintesi but it's almost $1900 for frame with chrome fork where the compact is $1295 with chrome fork.
I see that the Gios has a shorter top tube which would probably be good for me because my torso is a bit short compared to my legs. I'm 5'8" with a 32" pant inseam.
