Welcome! That’s a nice build you have there, very “clean”. I’d ride that. What size is the frame if I might ask?... I’m guessing a 58s, possible 56s. Although my guess could easily be reversed as a 56s, possibly a 58s. And what’s that saddle height if you mind me asking. Need to know so we can potentially swap bikes next time I’m in Italy :) .

Hi Calnago! it's a pleasure to read you, I've to admit that - reading your posts related to Colnago's frame - convinced me to choose this bike.

Size is 54s, I'm 1.83cm with 78.7cm of saddle height.

Wow, only a 54s, I wasn’t even close. I guess I’m more adept at guessing sizes in the lugged frames. Have never even built a Concept yet. I don’t know why, but you look even taller than me in the pics. Maybe you just look so much taller because I’m so much fatter. :). It’s a nicely balanced build. Well done.

Thanks Seamaster, nothing in real particular, just never seem one of these in real life & up close ........... so anything you think it’s appropriate will do!

Cheers
