Wilier Superleggera Ramato

I don't want to knock anyone who owns one of these but they are just regular SL frames, right? I have a Ciocc SL and the Wilier is way more expensive.

So, the premium is for the beautiful finish?

If we’re thinking of the same bike then I’m pretty sure it’s SL but it’s harder to find and even more so in the unblemished chromovelato state.

Other than the earliest ones the bike has to be fully chromed and then a copper lacquer is applied. The earliest ones may have been actually copper plated. That's my understanding.

Premium finish premium money. And IMO that is a hot finish. Not sure how much extra I would pay for it though.
