    If I had the cash I'd be on a similar spec BMC , dream bike for me. Which model is it. Pretty sure it's the Teammachine SLR range, SLR01 Three maybe?

    Thanks. Spot on it's a 2021 Team machine SLR01 Three. Which means it's got SRAM Force Axs groupset except for chain,rotors and cassette which is Red Axs. Put my own saddle on it obviously, and swapped out the included DTSwiss 1650's for Enve SES45 AR's. One spacer had to go and LBS cut the steerer. I'd never be able to right it slammed (yet anyway). Unfortunately it doesn't get the all in one bar and red stem. That's on the Two (dura ace) and One (Red Axs). However the stem on it does a good job of hiding the brake hoses and it will take any standard 31.8mm bar.

    Flaccus if you're a 54 I demand to be alerted when you change bikes.

    It’s a very neat solution - looks fully integrated without the faff of everything travelling through headset. Well wear!

    Picked this up over the weekend. Has plenty of racing battle scars, but
    they merely contribute to its overall beauty! :). Such lovely frames to ride both on and off road.

    They look great until the first spin in the rain. I put some on my bike in November, they’ve looked filthy all winter.

    Seatpost and stem a step too far maybe???? I'll forget I even saw the front derailleur and enjoy what is a lovely bike!!!!!!

    EDIT: Are there any of the other big bike manufacturers making lugged frames these days? Can't think of one.

    While talking about questionable Colnago's.........what's worse that a bike with a disc, a bike with two?

    Behold the Colnago v3rs-dv ("double ventoux")

    Hard to see this as anything beautiful, so probably not the right thread...
