No one I know cares, so I have to tell you guys:

After all my sh1ting on, for months and months about Cervelo and the EFBe test,
blah blah blah, I finally bought the steel Cervelo SuperProdigy. Comes with a
Columbus Muscle fork.

I'm wondering if it is actually Columbus Ultrafoco steel because, despite Cervelo
telling me several times via email that it was the lightest steel frame on the
market, this 58cm frame is about 1690g (I took the scales to the shop to
weigh it before I bought it), which is not exactly super-light. I don't really
mind at all; in fact I would've been a bit tentative riding a sub 1500g steel
frame. I've heard of guys breaking their Colnago Master X-Lights -- which reminds me,
have you guys seen the Colnago warehouse sale site?

No wonder the Cervelo Prodigy passed the EFBe test, it's a pretty chunky frame.
