  1. Congratulations. The art decor look never really appealed to me but this one surely is a head turner. Very, very beautiful. May it's owner have many safe rides on it.
  2. Do you suggest that I should buy the parts as they present themselves on the hub? Would this not be more expensive than buying a complete groupset? I'm in not in a hurry and will be able keen to buy the parts loose depending on the cost.
  3. fingers crossed.
  4. Was also partial to your thinking, maybe that second kidney needs to go.
  5. Thanks DJR. I'm praying that my fellow hubbers has the good fortune of upgrading to the new 12 speed campag groupset. And then maybe pass on a outdated 2015 to present super record groupset. Please keep me posted should anyone come across such an ad on the hub.
  6. Thanks for the encouragement. I managed to get a buyer for that kidney and will be able to drop 12k on a campagnolo groupset. Kindly bear in mind that I'm planning to put it on my c60, older record or newer chorus?
  7. Evening all. My current ride is a colnago c60 with a shimano ultegra 11 speed groupset. Does anyone have suggestions how I can go about fitting a campagnolo groupset on it without selling both my kidneys.I'm so desperate for this upgrade, I've already maxed out my data scouring the Internet and we are on an unlimited package.
  8. Ok, had the same experience with the merckx, feels a bit lifeless under me. Enjoy it as a commuter though and thought that maybe the bikes of those era share similar characteristics.
  9. Hi guys, I have an older eddy merckx as per my profile pic and was curious to know how the colnago's of that era rides.
  10. Not at all. Friendly banter.????????
  11. Duly noted.
  12. Was cringing when I posted those pics. I know it is sacrilege to have a shimano groupset on a Colnago and in hindsight should have posted a warning to the forum. Rookie mistake and will not happen again. As for the Most bars I will not apologize. I bought the C60 from a fellow hubber and had intentions to replace them before taking possession but after just one ride found them to be amazing. I'm convinced that Pinarello owners makes the mistake of crediting the bike with it's smooth ride and overlooking the quality of these bars.
  13. Nothing bought for your colnago can ever be termed "unnecessary".???? Congratulations on the purchase looks really good.
  14. Hi Cippo and Alain, I've owned a M10 traditional geometry for a number of years and have just recently bought a c60 in a sloping geometry. My experience was that the M10 was so much more racier. It picked up speed quickly and wanted you to go hard all the time, even on days when all you wanted to do was hang out with the back markers (which was often). The c60 is all that you want from a bike. It makes memories, you don't forget the first time you decended on it and how secure she made you feel. You can ride her all day and still have the desire to take your time when cleaning her, looking forward to taking her out again the following day. Maybe we are talking about two differently design bikes for two different riders and has nothing to do with the geometry, but I can't see myself going back to a traditional frame. That being said, I don't see myself ever buying another bike and will happily leave this world having the c60 as the last bicycle I will ever own. Sorry for being so sentimental but seeing as this is a colnago forum I'm sure the readers share my passion.
  15. Rest in peace my fellow cyclist. My deepest condolences to his young family.
