MJB... Very nice, and nice photos. But tell me, can you actually ride that frame with the FMB inflated to riding pressure. I'd like to see this same photo with the tire inflated. Is there enough clearance?

Thanks - The tyre is actually inflated to riding pressure but the shadow cast from the seat tube makes it look flat. Yes, the clearance was tight in that photo - only 4mm at the min. however I've since backed off the axle adjuster screws another couple of mm for a 6mm gap with more to spare. The FMB PR 25mm are actually 25.3mm wide according to my calipers. I'd expect a genuine 28mm tyre will fit both ends of my master frame but not much more than that.

Really like the colour theme, and it is something futuristic with the tri spoke wheels and the rear chainstay

Hello. I just bought today a colnago c40 frameset. The seller told me that is a limited edition (100pcs).

Beautiful frame in great condition, but it was a standard colour back in the day.

Peel that 'special edition' 3D sticker off. Colnago would never do such a thing.

Just enjoy it for what it is. You can't go wrong with a C40 and that looks a beauty!

Agree with Solarider. I've never seen a "Special Ediiton" plaque like that. I suspect someone just stuck it on there. It's ugly. Get rid of it. Frame is super nice.

Looks like an M10 with an EPS type paint job. Not sure what the shock is all about? Just a different paint job for a different market. They did this with a C59 in an ST02 color scheme from the 2008 C50 days as well.
