Went there last year when we broke in Scotland for 12 days. Visited two distilleries a day.

Just ran across these pics - I wonder who built them.

[leegf]

^^^ I'm guessing that's just open-mold carbon frames with Alfa decals.

[LateFan]

Like Taiwanese or something, not DeRosa?

Remember when Colnago did those Ferrari editions? They were a bit overdone IMO.

[leegf]

Correct -- (mainland) Chinese, to be exact.

My son was looking to get into road biking, so I fixed up an old mid-70's Panasonic as a starter. It’s still a mid-1970’s 10-speed on a mass market Japanese steel touring frame, but it works and looks much better now. The Shimano drive train is pretty bullet proof. Component list: Shimano Tourney double Crank, Look Delta Clipless Pedals, Original Shimano 600 derailleur (r), Shimano 50 deraileur (f), vintage Dia-Compe center pull brakes, modern Gevenalle Audax shifting/braking system with Dia-Compe friction shift levers, 3TTT handlebar, SR Stem, Sovos Hubs on 27x11/8 rims, Continental UltraSport tires, Cateye Strada wireless computer, Selle Italia X1 seat. Basically it is set-up kinda like a CycloCross bike but with a longer touring wheel-base, road tires & a few plush comforts. I think it’s pretty cool.

Nice work. Yeah that is cool.
