C50 with the new wheels, I have a rubbing problem on the small chainring/large cog though, I am opening a thread on the wheels forum to ask for help

It looks and feels good, a good 200grs heavier compared to the same setup on Boras but I think the change is worth the 200grs

This is a picture on still not glued tubulars, I just went on a short ride so the spokes can set in, but I noticed that spoke rub on the extremest gearing

That's the nicest, most elegant C59-C60 color IMHO.

It's a C50. :D

Pitty the C59 did not linger (at least in part) in the older paint schemes like this in ST01 - my freind has an EP in this colour scheme - looks even better in the flesh........

No, it's a 59. And I agree - mighty fine finish!

Oh, and kgt I see why you like it - that's a very very fine X-Light you have in almost the same color scheme

Well done, sir :-)

No ,I did not change my mind that Colnago is the best Italian bike brand.
But completely disagree with kgt and others about the color scheme of the art-deco(r) colnagos.
Neither great not unique.
No art-deco style paint or design everywhere I look at.Except TT rider graph .
Main objection: Color fading is not art-deco except you exactly border that area .
Or you just have to like it because it is a Colnago and you must believe that Ernesto can't do wrong.
Or you have to trust that Colnago did not mean to follow art-deco school and just named their bike art-decor because it is a mix of certain
art deco rules and art nouveau styles.
Just nonsense.
