There's plenty of discussions regarding Fiertes, Concours, CIII and other models on the forum. Your Classique wasn't produced for a great number of years and perhaps a lot of folks simply don't know much about it. I can't find any references to whether or not the Classique used butted steel in any of my catalogs, although they refer to the 853 tubing as '853 Professional Service du Course' tubing. I know the Classique didn't use the Colorado Concept swaged tubing the other Serottas used. Maybe an e-mail to Serotta themselves will get your question answered. jimcav 02-13-2007, 01:47 PM the low end was a quote from someone who did reply--had no info on the tubing, just that it was a low end model thanks again jim |
