Normally just doing endurance, some hills ride and not into racing.

Having owned both I would say the C60, so much more comfortable for me

As a C60 rider, I can only say good things about the bike but I've also heard good things about the bond as well. Not to make your life any more difficult than it is now, seems like you can't go wrong with either.
THE PAST: 2005 C'dale R700, 2006 Spesh S-Works Tarmac Gerolsteiner, 2009 Pinarello Dogma FPX My Way, 2011 Time RXR VIP

THE PRESENT: 2016 Colnago C60 ST01, 2017 Wilier Cento 10 Ramato, Cinelli Gazetta

THE FUTURE: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

C60 for sure as it is much better for your purpose.

Bond is a baller bike. Need a bit of an attitude to pull it off :)

Thanks guys, my heart always tell me to get the c60 since the model will never get updated (my opinion), but the bond looks fast and meanand i need the look since i am not a fast rider....

There is a forum member that has both and prefers his bond but I do not remember who he is.
For endurance riding I would suggest the C60 though since Bond is noticeably stiffer but C60 is noticeably more comfortable.

I would buy the C60, but that is because I own and love Colnago's and have not ridden the Bond.

C60 as all above members have noted, especially for the style of ridding you are doing plus as a bonus the last lugged carbon Colnago bike to be produced?!?
