New bike build: Colnago CX-1
Doing a little barter deal with a bike shop owner and my end of the deal allows a sweet bike build up.
I'm getting a CX-1 in white and red (52S) and outfitting it with Campy Chorus 11 speed. San Marco Mantra saddle. The wheels and the rest are TBD. PIcs to come this week!
I know that I'm about to get flak for riding an Italian bike made in Asia but hell, its a good deal for the both of us and honestly, I don't care that much as long as the feel and quality stand up to the reputation.

If you're smiling while riding it screw anyone giving you flak. They don't matter. Good for you. Enjoy the ride.

Don't post a build thread until you at least have some pics.

I am selling my 09 Tarmac SL for one of these. Our team deal is pretty awesome on the CX-1 so..i figured what the heck. Can't wait to hear what you think of it.
