at online Favorite Ride: Just about anywhere in France Bike Setup: Campag Chorus, Gios Kevlar saddlle Summary: Mine is the Cinquantenario - slightly different tubing to the A90. Bought it for the geometry (short TT, steeper angles), and it hasn't let me down. It's a short bike, so ideally a crit or climbing bike. But I've found it very comfortable on longer rides, even over rough roads. Very quick and lively, though stable on descents. Looks great, and has a classic pedigree. (checkout gios.it) Strengths: Comfortable, distinctive, reliable, solid, responsive and v.affordable for a classic Italian bike. Weaknesses: Responsive - perhaps not the best choice if you're into lots of no-hands riding! Similar Products Used: Specialized Allez, Colnago CT1. Road and tried lots of bikes before settling on the Gios.
