  1. Fumigalli who is the lead designer is a 29 year old aeronautics engineer. Ernesto's team is against having a frame below 1000g for safety reasons. Paintwork is done by a shop 3 hours drive from Cambiago not in house. Colnago seems to be obsessive of the product they put their name on.
  2. I know Swift is manufactured in the East but this is a special edition done with AX Lightness. I doubt a R180000 bike would be made in Taiwan.
  3. Asked the lady at Cool Heat stand when will SA see the C60. Her answer more or less ' what is that'.
  4. C59 Disc makes an appearance at Expo.
  5. I'm on the couch. Nice meeting you Matt and Claudio.
  6. Wind is looking like 20kph with gusts of 40kph. I would go with normal rims. The rear 50 with a normal front wheel is another option. Those SE gusts are gonna shake a front wheel if its a 50mm.
  7. These must be uncomfortable in the rain. I had a Selle Italia SLR Flow and riding in the rain ensured you a nice wet spray up the back.
  8. Just a correction Dale, the dropouts are aluminium not the stays. http://velonews.competitor.com/2014/03/bikes-and-tech/launched-colnagos-new-c60_318865
  9. As mentioned before there is a contract in place with Goodhope centre. If they offer a prepaid flat parking rate then CTICC would be an alternative. Don't expect many exhibitors then because of rates. Parking at CTICC would definitely utilise overflow parking in VNA and Foreshore then we would have to walk anyway.
  10. Vogue by Madonna is playing in my head right now. Strike a pose, Sir Brad. That just looks so wrong.
  11. That bike needs a stealthy all black cockpit and saddle with post. The all white is a little too fresh for me.
  12. Loving the white Italia as well.
  13. Admin can post pics of hubbers that visited.
  14. Lets see if it happens. Remember Saxo nearly pulled out of cycling so them leaving now is not impossible. The report says Cannondale to move over as well as bike sponsor.
  15. Swift carbon has now released the 680g Sculp frame at Taipei bike show. Built in collaboration with ax-Lightness yielding a 4.49kg bicycle. Price $ 17000 or £ 10000 or 180 000 Randelas. http://www.bikeradar.com/road/gallery/article/taipei-cycle-show-swiftcarbon-debuts-sub700g-sculp-road-frame-40251/1/
  16. Very naaice! Geez you have been around since 2009 and this is your first post. Atleast your first was'nt at that other thread.
  17. 2014 C59 framesets are still at 45-50K with all costs.
  18. Nice choice. I still like the Nero with ghost decals, wiff Campy of course.
  19. More pics of classic models. It seems as if decal on Classic is more traditional Colnago decal as opposed to Racing models.
  20. The Classic is absolutely gorgeous.
  21. I think this is the classic model to pay tribute to the classic Colnago paint jobs. I like, alot.
  22. According to Bikeradar the geometry of C59 is carried over to C60 placing it between the likes of aggressive H1 fit of Trek Madone and H2 fit that is more relaxed. The new BB stiffens up the frame considerably as well. Traditional and sloping sizes will be available.The frame comes in at 1045g and 1005g for disc frame. A thru-axle will be available later for disc frame.
