being an all black frame color, it can be kinda boring with all black. I have a matte black c59 and I've got bright label Boras on it. It's perfect and I wouldn't trade for the dark lables. Yet these same bright label wheels look hideous on a colorful C50 (ST02 paint scheme) that I have. So, tossup on the wheels... go with your gut on that one.
Word of caution on the Presa Bars... Pain In The Ass to route mechanical cables internally. If you go that route, you pretty much have to 1) attach cables to the shifters unmounted to bars (except for the mounting band and bolt), 2) route the housings through the bars, then 3) push the shifters and cables all the way onto the bars, line up with the mounting bolt and lock it down. Doable, bit still a pain.
Looking forward to seeing it all built up.
Yeah I'll admit, going for campy gruppo is also bec I want to run Boras and yeah I will prob go bright label. I know lots like the stealth look, but I prefer a bit of contrast and the white in the bora logos will match the white colnago logo, and there are enough red accents in the RSCG scheme to match the red in the boras. I've seen it done on the matte Italia black and looks great, I imagine with the gloss Italia black it would work equally well.
Yeah heard about the drama with presas - but does it affect shift performance? Or just the setup and routing?
Yeah will post the build soon. Just waiting on the wheelset. Exciting!
