Full Carbon Serotta Fierte?

Anyone know anything about a full carbon version of the Serotta Fierte, 2009? Where did it fit in the lineup? I had only seen steel and ti/carbon versions but saw a full carbon one that looked nice. Cheap grouoset but looks like nice frame

I turned a friend onto a sale of the Serotta demo fleet some years ago.
She had her heart set on a Ti Fierte but it got sold out from “under her”. I told her to stop complaining and contact Serotta. They built her a new full carbon Fierte for an unbelievable price.
Extremely happy with it. She says it’s the first bike she’s had that fits.
So, yes, they did exist.
The pecking order would probably be Fierte, HSG, Meivici.

The Fierte was Serottas endurance/comfort road bike. I am sure the Fierte carbon is a nice bike that likely used 6.5 tubes instead of the stiffer ones you'd find on the HSG and or SG Meivici and with the Fierte geometry. Likely a very nice riding bike for long days in the saddle!
