After months and months of shopping around for a new bike, I'm starting to narrow it down. Right now, I have a 5 year old Lemond Buenos Aires that I like but gets a shimmy problem on downhills above 45 mph (and damn near killed me 2 years ago). Right now, I'm thinking hard about a Pegoretti Marcelo. Advantages are it's Italian (and my wife's parents grew up about 1 1/2 hrs from where they are made), awesome paint jobs and great reviews. My other option would be to visit Roland Della Santa. I live in Reno and my friends who have Della Santas swear by them, often giving up various "hi-tech" bikes. Either way I'm blessed with a great bike but any input would be appreciated....
