EXPENSIVE JUNK

Nice ride and balance before it fell apart
My seat tube cracked around the near the bottom bracket. Seems like I'm not the only one to experience this.
I want to find the UK distributor for Ambrosio and get them to replace the frame and I'll keep giving them bad press until they do.

DONT BUY IT UNLESS YOU ONLY WANT TO USE IT ONCE IN A RACE!

Stiff for an alu frame.
You won't need to ride it for long for it to break. I had mine for about 2 years, and only rode it about 900 miles...seat tube cracked horizontally all the way round....LBS did diddly squat to replace or help me find a replacement either!
Shame - has the looks and finesse to carry off a brilliant bike but the seatube is far too thin to have any hope of longevity...buy a ribble!
