Bike it truly awesome, my ability can’t match the bikes. But it does make me faster. All 3 of my bikes have disk brakes, they are a no brainer

Really nice ride Richard. If I hadn‘t turned to the dark side (Mtn Biking) I would love one of those Italian babies.

We were in Nice for the end of the Paris-Nice this year and about half the teams had disc brakes. All the teams had electronic shifting.

You are correct about Italian designs. My Scapin is a most comfortable ride on those rare days I get it off the magnetic roller in the basement.

As the original poster, i started to ask that we go back to talking about bikes, but I figured it would create an uproar ....
