Judging by the yellow cleat it's a form of Shimmy SPD SL

I think they could look nice on the right bike, something with classic lines and lots of leather.

Not mine ipodrocker, they're Dario Cataldo's from Team Sky, who use Shimano Dura Ace pedals

That is my doing. She is wearing one of the fancy shoes from a few posts back

Hope that's the saddle.

nice to see someone else with a sensa looks good

Yeah really happy with the sensa. For a mid ranger it's quite high tech. It's got tapered headtube and press fit bottom bracket and internal cable routing. Chuffed.

They've messed with the saturation or something in the photo, colours look crazy. It's super nice though.

The Boras look great, just wish Campy could change the logo, Terminator 2 was out ages ago.

Stunning! Nice to see it with campeg. The only pics I have seen were with a DA group.

I respectfully disagree. I'd lick it :eek:

I'm surprised anyone anyone who bought that limited edition 80th anniversary groupset was willing to devalue it by actually mounting it.

I don't get all the love for this. It's a perfectly fine looking bike with very nice wheels. But there is nothing extraordinary about it at all.

If you took the name Colnago off the frame and replaced it with Planet X, Rose or Ribble no one would look twice at it.

None of those perfectly good manufacturers, who each make very nice monocoque frames, make such well detailed lugged frames.

People wax lyrical about handmade steel frames, which aesthetically are only subtly different to hatchet steel welded frames, because of the attention to detail and craftsmanship, and decry the lack of equivalent in modern carbon.

This frame, and a handful of others, shows the fallacy of their arguments.

Jesus it's like a Colnago deja vu page. Can we stop quoting the same massive pictures :pac:

I almost* fully agree, despite being on the steel side of the barricade.


* - except for the hatchet part

If Ribble made a C59 or C60 I'd be all over that.
