Pictures of Colnagos

[erik$]

Thanks for the nice comments! I really enjoy planning and putting together a nice build. Have gotten a lot of inspiration through this forum as well as some looks back. If one is able to get in a personal touch also, things click for me.

@ Tinea and Carpet: The hoods don't work for everyone but it makes it mine and that's sort of my goal. Have to admit the white ones look good though And thanks for the Hand!

@ majklnajt: Thought about a Zero100 myself but I think I need the -17 to mimic the position on the C40. Feels good initially so it will most likely stay put.

Erik, why didn't you bring that last sunday? It's beautiful, I never knew you got one. This are the type of things friends tells friends... Gosh.

I've been in love with that Saronni paintscheme since first time I saw it.

[majklnajt]

erik$, what happened to your C40 ?

[erik$]

Nothing happened, (thank God for that,) just expanding the collection when I can Was out on it yesterday so it gets ridden just as much as the EP.

@Martin: Will make it up to you

[Rumsas]

2 m from here, my C50 is waiting to build it up with Deda newton shallow bars and Deda zero100 stem.
Yes, again shallow bars. I will give it another try...

[michel2]

iit nice to see what my bike would look like with with bar tape and saddle (-;

@eurperg: Your stable is most definitely droolable as well

@michel2

[majklnajt]

@erik$, I am glad you still have it!

@Rumsas.... yeah....


Here is a pic with old bars and front LW Obermayer special edition. Just for fun


And here it is with the shallow bars... No bartape on and have to remowe the rear wheel decals. Sorry for crappy phone pics

Love that bike, especially the colour. Looks like a classic bike with 'proper' handlebars like the pro's.

[majklnajt]

Thanks KB! I appreciate your comments very much!

[CarpetFibre]

Yeah that colour is a truly magical one. Really like how you pulled off the build majklnajt; -17 stem is the only way to go with that frame - good work!

[majklnajt]

Thanks!
Yes, -17 degree stem and shallow bars!

I am curious why Deda doesnt make a -17 degree stem?!

[erik$]

+1 for sure!

I'm also a big fan of those colours, majklnajt. Looks good with the shallows
