HOTT!!!
This bike's paint looks flawless, is it original paint, or did you have it re-sprayed?

So nice to see a bike that isn't mostly black. A beauty!

Figured someone would ask that, I need a zero off set seat post but I haven't gotten one yet so my shops mechanic just turned it around

renegaderider 08-10-12 11:27 PM

The wheels are dope, but the seatpost freaks me out...

This is the second bike I've seen here with the post like this because of setback reasons.
:eek:
Sexy bike besides the fact...

The orange Colnago is what many incredibly lame and incredibly nice bikes in this thread wish they could be but never will.

Also the gearing on that would make most riders cry.

+1!!!
Which is why I don't ask if my bike is Hot or Not is this thread...:innocent:

That colnago is amazing.

Loving those black on black Boyd decals. How do you like the wheels so far?

c0lnago 08-11-12 10:11 AM

Colnago is gorgeous...perfect. I'd like to see more pictures of it...love that orange. Almost picked up a Molteni Master last year and have been regretting not doing it ever since.

Here's the right one.

bianchi10 08-11-12 01:44 PM

LOVE LOVE LOVE the ghosted boyds! so judging by your seat post I'm guessing you are like....6'10" lol, thats a tall seat post!!! (not gonna comment on it being turned around since it was already explained) what size frame is that? 62?

I'm sure you love them though. That's great, but sorry this thread is for outlandish opinions only. :)

Hey no problem ancker or Mike, just having some fun. No offense taken at all. :)

thirdgenbird 08-11-12 02:17 PM

I use the same pedals on my ELOS tommasini from the same era. I think the derosa is a different saddle from hot.
