I have this exact bike but in my size, would it be dorky to get a matching one for my girlfriend? It is such an excellent bike, a Super Prestige.

Good luck finding one.

Why would she need that tube set? The Super Prestige is one of the nicer handling bicycles I have ever owned.

If this one fits, it looks like a good value to me.

Actually I was being a bit hyperbolic since the ultegra gruppo is arguably free and it's a rare look even for tommasinis. He should draft something like a pre-nup; you want dorky? Try delivering a late bibliography to a professor's house unannounced with yourself and girl dressed in different school's team lycra. I'm now donating a frame every month to medicine.

Is it just me or are some of the components on here kind of cheap?

Brakes definitely look cheap. Formula 1 bikes usually had much fatter tires than that so that explains why the frame was made for long reach.

Please do not add any additional information that was not listed in the original CL ad, such as an address or phone number. We have received complaints from people who listed on CL that additional personal information is being added to these forums and it can get into a legal mess. Thanks for your cooperation.
