lovely build, do you switch out the pads everything you change wheels from carbon to alloy ?

Yes I switch between pads all the time...

Although the spring clip system makes it relatively easy and fast, I have sanded the back surfaces and edges of the pads slightly. After that modification they slide in and out with with very little effort.

The Boras are also much wider than the Nemesis rims, but it just takes five turns from the quick adjuster every time I change between wheels to make the brake lever feel the same.

Great build. I have a 61cm extreme power PR00 and i love it more everytime i ride it. Seeing yours with the new Bora 35's is going to force me to add to the wheel collection.

I stumbled over your post by accident, googling for an extreme power frame size 58 or 59. Super nice frame in PR00.
I wonder if the frame is still available, I am 186cm with 91cm legs, longish arms. After consulting the geonetry charts of colnago, I think it could be the ideal size for me.
Today I ride a Milani frame with 200mm head tube, with 20mm drop of the deda newton bars. Toptube is 565mm, 130mm stem.
Looking at the extreme Power, with a straight bar to the levers, my hands would sit slightly lower on the bar what I would prefer. 120mm stem would be sufficient from first view, but I have no experience with Colnago Geometry.

^ I can answer for that particular frame; I was lucky enough to purchase it. I'll post photos soon. Fantastic bike so far.

Micky always seems to have nice frames for sale though and I can vouch for him as a seller, fantastic experience.

(sorry to derail the thread..)

Back to Regale saddle. Two KOM / PR's on yesterday evening ride, the bike is perfect for that kind of riding.

Very nice! Is that the latest wide rim Bora? Any clearance issues?

Looks brilliant with the tan Veloflex. Blacked out I personally think it's too much black but easier to clean I guess for the winter months. Very nice build.
