I have to disagree with Miamijim...Sante was about on par with 600 Tricolor, but personally I found it to be a "fashion" group rather than a "practical" group -- for example, the brakes had the quick release as a button on the brake levers, rather than having the variable QR like the Ultegra, Dura Ace, and even 105 groups had. If you have a frame that Sante will LOOK good on, it's awesome, otherwise I'd just sell it.
