Cipollini bond, team, 2015 model, size L.
The frame's quality is really at the very top. I guess the real handmade in Italy is reflected here...
The carbon weave is amazing, much better than my Wilier's, very close to Time frames.
The frame looks stiff and 'powerful'. Huge bb386 and head tube, tall chainstays, thiner (but not pencil thin) seatstays.
All cables are 100% internal (compatible with both mechanical and electronic groupsets).
Some weights:
This is not a light frame but it is lighter than expected. 1181gr including rd hanger, integrated chain fall protector, fd mech. (It's maybe the matt coat version that is lighter than other versions).
Uncut fork 395gr
350mm cipollini aero seatpost 222gr
cipollini aero seatpost clamp 27gr
carbon cipollini bottle cage 17gr (lovely!)
I expect the total weight (with Campagnolo Chorus-Record-Super Record mix and LW Ventoux) to be around 6750gr.
More to follow...

It is a very nice looking frame in the flesh.
