I saw one in the flesh at my local distributor's. The frameset actually looks better than most of the pictures out there suggests! :thumbup:

Now for the ride report ... :up:

I hate the clumsy and amateurish typography and stupid nonsense buzzwords on the frame... Not just M10 but other Colnagos too... Expensive frames with cheap-looking graphics.

Nice build otherwise

aw come on, the m10 is aimed at racers looking to go fast, the graphics reflect this.... its fresh and sharp, just like the bike.


@ Subitus - maybe remove the decals on the wheels to make it a bit more euro vs americana ? looks a bit like a specialized stock build atm

I just took delivery of a matte black C59 frame and love everything except the cheesy "Colnago Headset System" on the top tube. I even asked if they could just leave that off when I ordered it way back in the first week of October. They said no but I loved the overall finish so much I had to have it anyway. So, it's there and I suppose I'll get used to it but before I build it up I'm going to check this week if they're might be any way of removing it. If anyone has any ideas? Of course, I'd rather leave it on than do some butcher job on it. On the bright side, I'll never forget that this has a "Revolutionary Colnago Headset System" which at the end of the day is what everybody else has been using for several years now. Still, wouldn't trade it for anything at the moment.

good that I did not say something like that ;) would be some kind of revolution going on here. that M10 looks like a Trek.

Calnago, get electrician tape, tape it ;) it is so stupid like EPS, extreme power super, in photoshop I cloned EPS out, the frame looks much better. will buy a white spray ..

they are just silly, I asked if I can have the frame without "EPS", no way. man, so easy, ask 300extra and send out the frame without that schnick schnack. ;) who wants the frame without "EPS" or whatever has to pay the 300.

will post the bikes without "EPS" in my thread.

Thats the reason i choose the matt black,i was ordering the matt black/silver first but couldn´t stand the stupid info everywhere "structural routing" on toptube and "monococe structure" on seat stay,it was a little bit too much of everything,this one was the cleanest and looks realy good live.Can´t belive it can be so different on picture.
