the colour is one of my favourite c'dale paint schemes of all times. i first saw a metallic dark blue c'dale on a caad8 frameset. i loved it! i think the colour was called patriot blue back then...

anyway, i LOVE the colour of your bike. the rims are a bit too tall for my taste, but they still look great... enjoy!!!

Absolutely stunning. All Evos should have come like this. I'm about to graduate with a Masters soon as well, but unfortunately, I don't get to go back home to the Bay.

That is excellent. I love the look of a slammed Cdale and that paint compliments the bike nicely.

Thanks for the kind words guys. Just took her for a 50 miler and she rides just fantastic. Not the lightest build, but definitely had stiffness in mind.

In case you were curious, I based the paint color off of Eric Clapton's stratocaster:

Needless to say, I was completely blown away when I saw the frame in person.

Is the color of the bike "just" high gloss or does it have a metallic or pearl finish (like RAL 5026)?

I think it's metallic. It sparkles brilliantly in the sun.
