My brother and I rode one winterseason on 2 (rented) Alan/Guerciotti frames (the mid nineties ones, with carbon tubing) and both broke after only a coouple of weeks. That's when I started to distrust these bikes (they all had a bit the same problem: the lugs failed) and never rode one since. Untill this one... I must confess I'm still not confident about it and only will be when it's still there by next summer. :-)
