I finally got around to putting on the bar tape so for now I am going to call the Allez Fin! It has some iffy shifts in the 21t and 23t cogs but I am going to live with that for now. After all I have paired a 1989 Suntour GPX drive train to a new SunRace 7 speed FW so maybe perfection isn't realistic. This bike makes me feel fast and it is allot of fun for blasting along the flats.
