    Still a work in progress, will be having some more suitable wheels built & have some nice pedals with toe straps on order. Unfortunately the monstrosity of the break caliper will have to stay as the fork is not drilled and I've no intention of defacing it.

    I tried to post this in the user's fleet thread, but failed to get the photo up. I'll try here. It's a CAAD10 rebuild project, just finished.

    That looks beautiful, but I'm afraid you'll have to change your saddle to a plain black one. Sorry.

    Is the frame sprayed silver or is it raw aluminium - if the latter, tell me more!

    Looks mega, but I couldn't live with the incorrect Cannondale logo, are they decals that you can remove?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,225 ✭✭✭Quigs Snr


    The latest addition to my stable. The colour is a bit marmite, but at least I won't be missed on the road.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,225 ✭✭✭Quigs Snr


    And also this one, although I probably shouldn't have. It was pricey, but they are rare in this original condition and I am a sucker for a steel colnago

    And this one (just frameset), which is not as good condition that I was going to build Neo retro with modern parts, although I think it is a little big for me, so I might have to sell this one on.

    Cheers - yes, I prefer them too

    Yeah, that was the photo the guy who sold it to me sent.. I suspected the record titanium crank was going to be a horror show.. but no.. everything is absolutely ship shape on it.

    I don't know why I am weak for old Colnagos especially the master (would also love a c40).. but I have 3 of them already.

    Its grey paint with silver flecks, done by Chris Custom Design up north. He's on FB.

    Sh*t, I see what you mean about the logo. I never copped that the font should be italic. The decals can't be removed. The bike is dead to me now. :mad:

    It's a beautiful build, really clean.

    Apologies for the poor picture, but this is what happens when your wife says "Taking your bike to Majorca is too much hassle, I don't care how much it costs, buy a new one and leave it there".

    Custom built Parlee Z-Zero

    (not mine by the way)

    I guess it depends on how you define beauty. It doesn’t have the wow factor, but other than the Dura Ace Di2 groupset, it is all either Parlee or Enve. Stupid money really but as he explains it, it was either that, or a Porsche.

    I’ll grab a picture of his Passoni next time I’m in London, now that really is a thing of beauty.
