I recently posted pictures of my new Colnago C59Italia. I have owned the bike for a month now and have put nearly 600 miles on the bike (it would be higher mileage, but the Colnago shares riding time with the Bianchi and the Bottecchia).

I recently switched to Campy Eurus wheels and, for a little contrast, I changed the brake hoods from black to white.

What do you guys think? Do the changes make the bike hotter or just the same?

Thanks

NOTE: The second set of pics is a bit crappy because I had to use my cellphone. My kid just borrowed my good camera. I wonder when I will see it again.
