Campy chorus with Rotor 3D+ Haven't decided yet on 3T or Deda bars and stem Figured I'd post though as not many of these lying about. Not sure about how wonky that 'Innovate or die' badge has been put on the chainstay, the contador decal may be coming off too

Conceptually it's a cool idea. I think you've got to keep the Contador graphics otherwise you loose part of the story behind the colourway. Did Spec release the production run numbers for this one? _________________ Fear is healthy, panic can be deadly Last edited by mellowJohnny on Thu Aug 22, 2013 1:42 am, edited 1 time in total.

The SL4 is 1 out of 200, I'm pretty sure they've done a venge version too though, likely the same numbers. Will get back to you with weights
