This post is also in the Pictures of Colnago's thread
I started with this

Then I took off the SR-11 parts, added a few new ones and made thisImage

Then I sent the Colnago EPS frame to Ruckus to be converted for electronic shifting and a respray, first they stripped the paint ImageImage

while they are working I gathered up these, SR 11 EPS V2,

They only used the head badge decal, everything else is masked and paint layers, the black is actually through to the bare carbonImageImageImageImage
Here is the finished project

Amazing. That original "paint job" looks like it's straight out of a Chinese knock-off factory.

Second design looks like an actual Colnago. Very well done indeed.

Superb!!!

Yeah we all have our own opinions about what we might do ourselves (I'm in agreement about ditching the TRP calipers) - but overall the owner has done a great makeover with a selection of parts he prefers!!

WELL DONE!!! :beerchug:

I am grateful for the opinions, what would you recommend instead? I have a set of ciamallo gravitis I could use, I have no issue with the way these TRP brakes work, they hold center well and they have great stopping power. I raced for a local team that had TRP as a sponsor so the deal was too good to pass up.

I also have a C59, this was just an old favorite that I decided to upgrade instead of selling
