You'll be happy to know that the bike is almost all Italian. Rossin frame (made from Diadiaccia aluminum tubing), Miche hubs, cranks, chainring and cog, TTT headseat and handlebars, Ambrosio rims. About the only non-Italian things on the bike are Hutchison (French) tires, and cheapo generic seatpost, seat and pedals, likely Japanese of some sort. More important, I'm glad you liked it, even if you don't know why. It was just a kind of "throwaway" shot that I forgot all about until I got the contacts back, and thought, "hey, this is kind of cool". Those are always fun little surprises, that happen far less often than anticipating a shot that I think is a sure winner, getting back the contact and realizing, "wow, that one really sucks." <vbg> Thanks again for the nice words. cheers, frank -- "Sharpness is a bourgeois concept." -Henri Cartier-Bresson
