For anyone considering the Giordana let me say that my Antares was my first Italian bike and is a wonderful one. There is something quite special about the way Giordana's ride on the road. I love mine so much that it drove me to seek out three other (so far) Giordana models. None of which I would ever consider selling.

These frame will build up into a wonderful bike without any doubt at all!

Mine has a lot of pink and may not look very "manly". But there's nothing soft about how fast it flies down the road and I love taking this out on the weekends just to blow by all the fancy spandex wearing youngsters on their $5000 plastic bikes.

Someone needs to jump on this frame!

Thanks to Jamesdak for pointing out that I mistakenly labeled the Giordana as a Polaris when it was in fact an ANTERES model.

35 wonderful miles on my Antares after work yesterday. I just shake my head in amazement that this is still here. Such a wonderful riding frame. Don't let the Cromor tubing put you off if considering this. It shows in the weight of the frame but not in the magical ride quality. I do long mountain climbs of 5 miles at an avg 8% grade with mine no problem. And that's with a 42T small chainring and like a 21T or 23T out bike. This frame puts the power to the wheel!
