This thread really points up the "to each his own" aspect of our hobby. Giacomo, I'll grant that that Colnago has a ballsy paint job. And I admire the testosterone levels it takes to do that. l just don't think it's good design at an aesthetic level.
I agree.
To each his own for sure.
But I appreciate both. I have bikes in both plain vanilla colors, like a white Miyata, and a silver Colnago, along with wilder paint jobs like my Barecci and a 2 tone Basso, so I can make room for both styles...
