I wouldnt buy a tango - Theres one in the local shop - its £3k :shock: ridiculous stuff.
but if a garage door was left open and I had no morals - Ooohh yes
They look gorgeous - as does the Avant which is much cheaper - fantastically nice looking frame (although still far too expensive, its something like £1800
)
You can really appreciate the materials and build quality when you see one close up - I think thats partly what I like about this sort of bike.
Other than that though, yes they are somewhat pointless - a bike is only as fast as the riders legs at the end of the day.
