Anyone know any high end road bikes that still use threaded bottom brackets besides Pinarello?

Colnago C60.

Can't think of any other production frame with a threaded BB right now.

The C60 is unique in that they've now got their "Threadfit" system, which basically has cups that are threaded into the Bottom Bracket but you still then need adaptors which fit the bearings into those cups. It basically adds another layer between what is considered a conventional threaded BB, which the Pinarello still is, albeit still with Italian threading last time I checked.

There's sometimes a buggy.
How many drivers does a buggy have?

So let's just say I'm drivin' this buggy...
and if you fix your attitude you can ride along with me.

All the high end carbon ones now seem to be BB86
EMX-525, the SanRemo '76, Mourenx '69

The lower-end carbon and aluminum ones are BSA
EMX-1, EFX, AMX, AFX, Eeklo70

The one oddball is the women's Milano 72 = ITA
