You may try and ride it before putting the tape on, to be sure it is comfy enough for you.
Thanks for the measurment! I thought the frame is bigger than 57. It is a very lovely bike.
BTW, I love this meat cutting Dura-Ace crankset!

Yes, BxEddie, you are right.
Rims are from Reynolds, front hub is Elf Alchemy and rear hub is Tune Mag 170.

Only mild struggling here.

Looks and colour scheme in particular are nice, and as a user of Kuota's similar shaped handlebar I can see why you like the FSA.

Struggling with the fact that you're carrying a urine sample in the bottle cage ;-)

Seriously, fantastic frame!

I'm still struggling to believe that I have one now, as it was a childhood dream for me (back in the day it was the C40).

Cheers and ride safe ! :beerchug:

Wow, is that ever bright! Reminds me of Colnagos of old, before they went to the current boring paint jobs. I love it.

As for the bars, stem and saddle, to each his or her own. If they work for jc, they work.

American Italians seem to love Columbus Day - so I present to you my C59 with a pair of Ambrosio Nemesis Rims laced to Record Hubs. These rims rock and the record hubs are, without question, the smoothest hubs I have and I got DT Swiss 240, Mavic Cosmic Ultimate wheels. Weight is just over 16 pounds and the bike is a 58 sloping or 60cm traditional. Built up with Record 11 and Deda 100 bars and waiting on my Deda 100 stem in 130mm so I have the ritchey in 140mm.

Very happy with the bike and am a total convert to Ambrosio rims with Record hubs and the sweet ride of tubbies.
