Superleggera Pro is a GREAT bike! Just a couple suggestions to make it better
I just got my Superleggera Pro last week and assembled it in one evening - easy-peasy. I took the measurements off my old bike, and then made a couple half-cm tweaks to the seat height and setback to get a comfortable ride. The bike is so responsive to pedal strokes that I can almost feel the bike surging forward, and it tracks so well that I could ride sitting up without my hands on the bars almost immediately. My second ride was a 100-miler with plenty of climbing and descents and it felt super-stable descending, even when I hit 49mph! I love the simple elegant look of the white graphics over the clear-coated carbon fiber weave. You can't beat this bike for the price anywhere on the planet...
My only complaints (and call them more like suggestions). This bike should be available with a compact crank set. At 49 years old, I don't need to be stomping on a 39/25 up long climbs. Buyers should also have the ability to choose seats. The one I got is OK, but I'll probably change it out for a Fixik Aroine, which I love.
