Not mine, but one of my riding buddy's. Owned from new (over 15 years) and he often chooses it over his Madone. Originally on some beautiful deep rim aluminium Campagnolo wheels but when a spoke went and he couldn't source a replacement so these Record hubs on Open Pro Ceramics were fitted instead. Simply flattens out every road!

Colngao Tecnos was a tour ridden frame and used Columbus EL-OS tubing from what I understand:

It is harder to get a Tecnos than a Master x-light for sure.

I had a technos for a few years. I'm sure it is still out there somewhere.
