I was just wondering if any forumites have experience with the Glider Tupelo, a Colorado-Concept all-steel frame built by Serotta for Cyclefit, the London retailer?

The geometry and overall package looks remarkably similar to the Heritage Classique (though introduced before the Heritage line), but I wondered if anyone had direct experience and could comment on whether the finish quality matches the main brand, and what the ride is like (the numbers look like the Sportive / Club end of things)?

Are you saying Serotta is building a model specifically for the European based market?

Can you provide any details? Photos? On-line reviews?

I wonder if the Glider is the US equal to the Heritage nowadays ?

I went to fit school with Julian and Philip. They are excellent.
