Marlon ;)) try the jersey..

I was thinking in the C59, but then they told me very clear that paint PR99 is not available for the C59, so it was clear that I would go for the EPS (NO slooping!!). I dont like these clown-ralley-stripe paint jobs.

since I will go (the first time) for shima-NO ;) I will try with the Shimano 7850 C50 TU, I got them some time ago second hand. if I dont like them, I´ll try with the Mavic CCU, but then I have to remove the stickers, since they are yellow ;)

the wires run inside the bars, through the stem/steerer tube etc into the frame for the Di2. Also the battery is in the seat tube.

Unless that one is significantly different to the one they showed in Melbourne, the battery sits on a mount under the down tube behind the chainrings.

The bloke at the stand was really cool about turning the bike around and upside down to let me have a good look at it all.

yeah C59 great shape etc, but why just copy Pinarello with the glitter? Why there is a need for that?

Bloke I spoke to had dark hair and impressive sidies. Initials were TD.

Hope to catch up with him again at the Worlds expo down on the pier.

overexposed video where you see nothing of the bike and empty marketing words.
