Patchelicious Posted March 28, 2017 Posted March 28, 2017 Go for the Colnago.... it's just that much more desirable than Bianche
Newest Posted March 28, 2017 Posted March 28, 2017 I'm a Colnago man. BUT that short chainstay always spoils the lines for me ..... on ANY bike
splat Posted March 28, 2017 Posted March 28, 2017 My choice of the 2 would be the Bianchi, but if I were to switch to a Colnago, it would be a C60. Oh, and whichever way I went, it would be Campy all the way.
KurTieB Posted March 28, 2017 Posted March 28, 2017 This question is very similar to that of Porsche or Ferrari for me. Both are top end products but lets face it we all would want that Ferrari more than that Porsche. So, Colnago it is (for me at least!). It just stands out from the crowd. Wish i was you with such a lovely dilemma. Whatever you decide, enjoy, be safe and have fun!
Cippo Posted March 28, 2017 Posted March 28, 2017 I'm not biased at all, not one little bit. Go for the Colnago. It took them a while before they launched the Concept which says a lot about their R&D making sure they get it right. I came across a blue one as below and could not look away. True masterpiece. The black with gold is pure art as well. Please what ever you do, make sure it has Campy on with a set of Bora 50's or 80's, even better would be Lightweights.
ZakAttak Posted March 29, 2017 Posted March 29, 2017 as an XR4 owner , you cannot go wrong.... just do a search of all reviews on the XR4 - you will see the light.not to mention the awards which just keep on rolling in. You need to change your hub name, or put a space between Mad & One, otherwise people will think you ride a Trek....
J∆kk∆ls Posted March 29, 2017 Posted March 29, 2017 Bianchi, the specialissima is hands down one of the most beautiful bikes ever made! (opinion)
Patchelicious Posted March 29, 2017 Posted March 29, 2017 OP, I suggest you post a pic of each and put a poll up....
Patchelicious Posted March 29, 2017 Posted March 29, 2017 Bianchi, the specialissima is hands down one of the most beautiful bikes ever made! (opinion) He wasn't asking about the Specialissima, that would be in the C60 category.
ZakAttak Posted March 29, 2017 Posted March 29, 2017 I would also opt for the Colnago, as mentioned before, you see many Bianchi's around... Also, the Colnago has more Pinache to it... Colnago also seems to be more popular with Collectors... So might appreciate with time...
Madone69 Posted March 29, 2017 Posted March 29, 2017 You need to change your hub name, or put a space between Mad & One, otherwise people will think you ride a Trek.... i do
Madone69 Posted March 29, 2017 Posted March 29, 2017 He wasn't asking about the Specialissima, that would be in the C60 category.the XR4 is in fact not a fair bike to compare the Concept to. the XR4 has never claimed to be an aero bike, but one with some aero features added. the Concept is aimed purely at the aero market like the Trek Madone & Specialised Vias.
J∆kk∆ls Posted March 29, 2017 Posted March 29, 2017 He wasn't asking about the Specialissima, that would be in the C60 category.Yeah, but so many C60's mentioned I thought I would level the playing field! Colnago and Bianchi both beautiful brands. I would love to have both, but not in that league yet!
