My friend's Colnago BiTitan (a titanium Colnago c. 1994 or so) was the biggest piece of crap ever foisted on a big bucks bike consumer. It broke in 90 days. Looked dopey, lasted less than 6 months.
But lots of people LIKE these bikes. Hey, don't listen to me. I ride a friggin Cannondale. I'm sure all the Colnago owners hate Cdales as much as I hate Colnagos. Whatever floats your boat I suppose. To me Colnagos will always be the poster boy for foo-foo bikes.
Did you reach your conclusion with a sample size of 1 or do you have other experiences that you'd care to share to back up your remarks?
