Hello,
In my shopping for a new bike one local shop suggested I
might have a custom frame by Marinoni ordered.  The steel
they use is Columbus and they offer SL, Chromor, Brain,
SLX and others.  Up til now I have been on a Tange Chromoly
frame with a magnalloy fork, I like the feel but I would 
not mind something lighter.  the diference in price between
a frame of Columbus Brain steel and Columbus SLX is $ 200.
how much of a diference will I notice in the ride?
 
I have bumped up the amount I am willing to spend on my 
next road bike a bit, but I still would like to get away 
with spending under $2,000 total.  Any suggestions?
