Default Re: New to cycling

as far as I was aware, a lot of the larger know bike companies were getting frames and components built or assembled in that area. So it's not all that surprising. Bottom line to me, is how the CF is laid, what kind of reliability it has and is there a warranty that is hassle free.

This isn't a dig at online suppliers, but I prefer to know and buy from an LBS as at least then you have some form of recourse to go to should you need to claim. Online purchasers are harder to come to the party even though they swear by their own warranty policy. I'm still yet to find an LBS here in SA that stocks Azzurri bikes.
