from philaDate Reviewed: March 19, 2003
Strengths: Ultra light, thin, stiff mag/aluminum tubing, no flex, and aggresive geometry makes the Millenium amazingly responsive and still stable at high speeds.Weaknesses: Coppi skimped on the clear coat finish (typical Italian framemaker) I added 8 coats of clear coat and rubbed it out for a very tough finish- too bad you have to do that to a $2600 frameset.Bottom Line: I had riden a Cannon cad3 for about 15,000 mi. and wanted something more high end. This is my first nonproduction frame(there is a difference),its incrediably responsive. If you turn your head it turns. There is absolutely no give in the bottom bracket, touch the pedals and it jumps. The aggresive geometery,74 deg, short top tube, modified compact rear triangle makes the frame a real Ferrari. This was the first frame listed at under 1000g, and my 54cm's actual wgt came in at 1220g. If I had wanted comfort I would have gotten a Lightspeed.
