How does it ride in comparison to your other bikes?
definitely stiffer than the C60, you can feel the road and does not absorve bump compare to C60. Although at my current weight I'll take as much stiffness I could get. which is a good thing for me. So far I'm liking the ride, stable on the decent and snappy on flats.

Thanks for the review, it more or less affirms my experience of Cipollini frames: super stiff, with limited comfort (of course it is just fine with 25mm tyres). Definitely frames that reflect Mario's persona.

Looks good! Love the 3k finish. What's that thing round your seat-tube though?

Hi nismosr, I've really benefited from your thread. Thank you!
I've been cyclist since my youth but only now getting into my own advanced maintence as well as learning about building. I have a build very similar to yours (albeit, which I had a shop build for me). I've ridden it less than a dozen times since they finished the build last fall when weather was getting cold and snowy up here in New England. Anyway, now that riding weather is finally upon us, I recently wanted to change my seat angle but I do not know the torque limits or torque recommendations. I believe I have the same seatpost has you: my frame is the generation before yours (with BB30 instead of BB386) but with same ISP device I believe, which is internally expanding. I've read too many stories about fragile carbon frames, and I'm no lightweight either (90-95kg), so thus far I err on the side of caution and also tend to baby my equipment, just in case.

Would you happen to know the torque recommendations? And also: any other tips regarding this frame?
