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

Rig = Mountain Bike in my head. You're in the wrong forum.

Thanks for that awesome insight and your wonderful contribution. English is not my first language and it is obvious that I still have challenges using the proper terms according to your liking. Now, do you ride a Cinelli?

I am sorry I offended you. This is the road forum, I was giving you a proper welcome. Seems like you have a good mastery of English from this end. Your grammar and lack of contractions (more proper to avoid contractions as you did) show you already have a step up on some of those who speak only English. I wasn't poking fun at you, more poking fun at our Mountain and Trail riding brethren, in a fun and very non-serious manner.

No offense taken...it is difficult to judge intent without the cues. I just responded in kind. As you stated, this is the road forum and thick skin is a requirement. Back on topic.

Cinelli...show time!

You might shop around for other Columbus Zonal frames to get some idea of what the spread is. Some of the Bottecchias on Ebay have Zonal, which I have, and the higher spec Columbus Airplane tubing, such that you can nearly buy a whole bike for just the cost of a new Xperience frame.
