It's laterally stiff, yet vertically compliant.

Looks as if it might be coming from a certain April 1st prankster, who can be a bit of a tease, and a combination of a budding F.F. Coppola and Team Radio Shacks' youngest mechanic.

Well that hand hole in the box isn't giving up anything...I'm going to guess a Vincere perhaps?? (if so you're going to love it)

Hopefully the box will arrive as intact as it is in that photo. So far I've had good luck avoiding transit damage, may you too.

I don't even know what a Vincere is. But nooo...

Hint: I posted some pics of it a few days ago.

A, so that's what a Vincere is... Alas, no. The only thing "Masi", is the box.

A 1978 Gran Criterium in orange would be pretty cool, though....
