Another Cipollini Bond enthusiastic review!
http://www.roadbikereview.com/reviews/review-cipollini-bond-road-bike

"I haven’t been this excited about a bike or bike parts in a long time. I couldn’t stop thinking about how remarkable and different the ride feel was. How could a road bike approach the times of a triathlon bike? How could it be so responsive yet not beat me up? How could an upstart company produce something that was so impressive?"

That black 2015 Bond is the best looking bike in this thread by a long shot! Absolutely lovely!

Hi!
I wanted to buy a trek madone 9 but then I saw the new Scott Foil and now the Cipollini Nk1k.
I'm attracted to this new Cipollini but I'm scared about the weight. I would mount with di2/Eps.
I thought about the disk version also, (or better direct mount brake?)

Your advices are welcome!

I doubt anyone has already ridden a NK1K in order to give you a feedback.
Everyone admits, though, that it was among the nicest bikes of this Eurobike.
IMO Trek is is one of the ugliest frames ever made. Scott is much nicer. NK1K is a jewel, really.

IME the naked carbon frame will be much ligher than painted versions. And it is sexy as well.

I would not worry about the weight. Do consider it is a handmade monocoque. Almost no one else does monocoques any more.

I know that is impossible get a feedback. I'm looking for an advice.
The first choice is between disk version and direct mount brakes.
then between Campagnolo Super Record Eps and Shimano Dura-ace di2.
