The Colnago one supposedly matches the frame colour.

As detailed elsewhere, I've been waiting a little while for my MTBK EPS. You're not really not making me feel any better :evil:

Too Cool.

The Colnago one is just a generic OEM mold- nothing special. Post depends on bar/stem of course!

Cant wait to see this one built!

LW's will look great on this bike. The frame asks for toned down components.
How about New Ultimate for post, stem and bars ?

i've just built mine, i used 3T LTD bar and stem, and since the EPS seat post didn't have enough set back for me i got a 3T ltd seat post to match, looks awesome, will get a pic this weekend. The record post has the wrong carbon weave to match the frame IMO. Mine is a 52S and weighed 1gram different! built with super record and all 3T carbon bits and carbon fizik saddle, weighed in at 6.88kg with reynolds assault training wheels and 6.46kg with zipp custom 303 tubulars (Dt swiss 190 hubs and areolite spokes).
Good luck with the build, can't wait to see another built!

OK ....
Question....
I have been told that 2010 EPS are now supplied with EPS seatpost.
Mine didnt come with one....
Looked on the Colnago website and they say it is supplied...
This was supplied through Solent in the UK via one of there dealers
the box had colnago tape on it when i opened it, so i dont think its been taken out.
Did any one else get a seat post with there 2010 EPS?
Cheers
