You pitch up at your date's house and ring the doorbell, only to find that her sister who is way hotter than her opens the door. C59 and her even hotter sister the V1-R.

All of the V1-R’s tubes, including the fork blades and the seat stays, have a special shape optimized in the wind tunnel to make the V1 even faster.

FORK

The V1-R’s fork is also a new concept, designed and structured to support the integrated front brake body.

BRAKES

One of the most striking features of the V1-R is the adoption of a new standard for the braking system.

CARBON FRAME DROPOUTS

Another major innovation found on the V1-R is represented by the use of carbon fiber monocoque dropouts and an internal replaceable derailleur hanger.

SEATPOST

For the maximum integration and aerodynamics, we offer the new V1-R with a special, dedicated seatpost.

DISC BRAKE

The housing for the disc was obtained directly from the mold, without sacrificing the full carbon dropout, one of the most important characteristics of V1-R.

BOTTOM BRACKET

To increase the rigidity of this portion of the frame, without increasing the thickness of the tube walls and, consequently, frame weight, the V1-r uses tubes with larger sections.

The more i look at it,the more it looks like an open mould frame.

 

I think pretty soon you should be able to buy a knock- off considering where its made.

I wonder if Colnago is still going to release a CF model at Eurobike, as it is supposed to be a specific Colnago for Ferrari model as the previous CF8.
