Erik is known as a collector of fine bikes. Here is is latest project.

THM cranks and fork are already delivered, AX brakes & seatpost/saddle as well as Schmolke bars are on order. The bike will get our full carbon derailleur as well. It should be complete in January.

The WW Colnago frame is interesting, isn´t it? 8)

Adidas needs to make their shoes in a 51, is that so much to ask.

When your shoe size sounds like a frame size I guess it might be a challenge. :lol:

-- back on topic: Zabel's frame looks close to a 51cm.

There are not many guys that can ride a WW bike with a frame pump and not look like a fred... Zabel sure can!

Someone should bring him to this forum!

Good work :D

Looks Gato to me - UD lugs?

edit: sorry take that back the Gato also has a cosmetic weave around the lugs

:noidea:

Perhaps the clue is in the weight? 900g Intro?
