Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

No because I would've got the regular revenio 3.0 that is green and black but there was no size to fit me^ so they got the marinoni frame on it before I even purchased it. Marinoni is an Italian frame, very good!

Go to black tires, white seat and bar tape and white cable and it'll improve a lot. There is no reason for neon green to be on this bike. Even if you are a Basso fan.
Ya it's my favorite to, and it's Italian like me! Lol

And ya to be honest I don't like it one bit, it looks absolutely awful with that mix of colors but I'm only 15 and I'm not into biking as much as I can be right now because of school and I got exams soon D: other than that when I get a job and make some extra cash than I'll be go full speed into the biking world!

By the way, I'm definitely doing that touchup you mentioned with the seat and bar tape etc. That sounds amazing!! <3 thank you!

Marinoni is actually a Canadian company, started by an Italian man who settled in Montreal. It's a Canadian frame.

Your bike is also NOT a Revino, a Revino is a Raleigh correct? Does it say anywhere on your bike the words Raleigh or Revino? No.

You have a Marinoni Delta, which has been built with Shimano components(possibly taken from a Raleigh Revino 3.0) which does not make it in any way shape or form a Raleigh Revino 3.0. STOP CALLING IT THAT.

I get your sarcasm. The other items you mention are the typical (at least lately) nitpicky crap we see here.

However, the skewer lever is positioned correctly, so I assumed you did not know how to correctly position a skewer and was providing some helpful feedback.

It is obviously a very hot bike, I would have thought that the ridiculous comments I made would have been a clue that the entire critique was a joke, but I guess in this thread my incredibly stoopid remarks are normal..........................

Speaking of Looks, someone should buy this 695 from Excel. EPS is the only option.

I vote dgasmd. He's considering a new bike, already has a Look, and has the money. It could be the hottest bike on this forum with the right wheels.
