Hello from Varese (Italy)
Hi there,
I'm from Varese (Italy).
I'd like improve my English language with native English speakers, so it is better having the possibility to do it with interesting arguments for me as cycling.

I have a carbon frame road bike equipped Shimano 105 set up by a local artisan, an alloy mountain bike Rockrider equipped Sram and a 20 years old bike that I us for going in the town.
I live near to the Shrine of Madonna del Ghisallo - the Patroness of cyclists.
La Madonna del Ghisallo is venerated by international cycling as patroness of cycling and the place has become the focus of many riders' pilgrimages.

An Italian newcomer to the U.S.A. --
from a country with high reputation of the best steel frames.
But rather oldbike14 from Italy has carbon fiber. Be the frame made in oldbike14's country?
As there be those in the U.S. that never will surrender there Italian Steel.

Sorry, I'm not fluent in English language. I don't understand what you say about bike frame.
