Interesting info. Confirms what I've always thought the Brits are a bit more porky than the Italians!

True lm sorry to say but it was the similarity in weight between the Carbon frame TVT and the (slightly larger) steel frame Moser from the previous decade ! Hows that possible ?

You will be amazed how a bit of extra filing here and there can make a difference .

The biggest difference will be the person riding any of the bikes , and said person can easily lose or add the extra wieght
