Has anyone any experience of this bike? Seems reasonably specified for the money - £800 list,
£550ish to buy.
Views? Alternatives for the same sort of amount?
Thanks, everyone.

DGI bought a 2002 San Remo when I was in the UK last year. I really like the bike for the price, though it is quite a bit stiffer than my 198X Raleigh 480! I weigh 230lbs and have not had a problem with it yet, though I did replace the wheels, tires, brakes (105) and seat (Brooks). The wheels that come with the bike are weak and kept flatting my tubes because of manufacturing defects. Note: After 2002, the bike has decals instead of paint. The bike is also a little heavy, which doesn't bother me as I am a recreational rider.
At the very least, you'll have a decent Shimano 105 bike that very few people have seen!
