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

DeRosa of Bianchi Frame?

Hi all. I have a bead on either a DeRosa Merak or a Bianchi M Pro Ally 7000 (frames). I'm building a sprint/CRIT bike. Both are older, in good shape, aluminum frames. Around the same price point. The DeRosa is essentially 'new old stock" with an uncut carbon fork. The Bianchi fork is a Bianchi-branded carbon SL and comes with a seat post, seat and what appears to be nice handle bars. The frame has obviously been rode on, but looks good. I guess my main question doesn't concern "value" or the pricing, but what would serve as a better sprint or CRIT frame. Any thoughts? Thanks!
