How much does it cost to Oldham?
Fing is, stuff with a fancy exotic foreign name sounds all ooooh ahh etc. But is it actually better than anything that you can get built on these shores? As ^sez also, it's down to you at the end of the day boo. It's your cash.

I've been down a similar road recently though my budget's tighter, £1500 for frame and wheels.
I like Enigma and Condor Steelie esp the high-end ones, but the budget doesn't quite stretch to the Super accacio teritory.
The Colnago is lovely but IIRC the tubing's not particularly special for the price. As for some of the fancy lugged stuff, I want to ride it not Brasso it ....
So top of my hit list at the moment is the clean and simple Ritchey Road Logic 2.0 which reviews very well indeed (for what's important to me) and with F+F for £1000 or less is nicely in my budget plans.

The best bike in the world is the one you're riding.
