Good to know, I can stop coming in here to look at it so. It's too expensive.
Beautiful bike though, love the colour

I love everything but the spoke pattern on the wheels, for my 2000 euro wheelset I'll have a more traditional pattern thanks.

Oh my!

Do we fight to the death now or what?

It'll be 2 v 1 Ramm!!!! Where to start, the miss matched spokes between wheels, the bottles, the clash between the frame logos and the wheels stuff.

To the images of ugly thread with you

Raam

Mis-matched spokes? You mean the classic Campag tri-spoke pattern? I've been away from here too long ;-)

I mentioned I'm no fan of the tri spoke pattern earlier in the thread but to have one of each is getting me all kinds of triggered.

I need a beer now

Sorry about that.

I'm phoning Santy on eeeee and Raam over this, see how you guys like your lumps of coal Christmas morning.

magicbastarder

at least we can't see any details of Raam's hob in that photo, so we can't argue over that.

^^^ dream bike there!

letape

eeeee

Glorious.
And I don't even like pink

The pink one's a babe. The new one is a stunning frame and build ruined utterly by Colnago's dodgy new typeface. Specifically the upper case A and the variation in stroke thickness. It changed, what, two years ago? How have they not changed it again. It is destroying that bike.

magicbastarder

they probably brought some marketing firm in who told them 'oh, you need to refresh your brand'. because no marketing firm makes money from telling a customer 'oh your brand is strong, well recognised, and has history, so best leave well alone'.
so instead they tell them to go with a bland, blocky sans serif font.

It's such a disgracefully crude type. That frame... beautiful lugs and top notch craftsmanship with a type that resembles that used by a pre-teen making a poster for their school jumble sale. Unforgiveable and impossible to see beyond.
