Love the ghosted C'dale logo on the downtube. Not a fan of alloy/carbon hybrid wheels, but the graphics on those Bullets match the bike so perfectly. The white/black/gray balance is just perfect overall, down to the bottle cages. Deda + Campy + C'dale + SiSL = Win!

Pic with Boyd tubs is a must.

Some better pics, got the race wheels on, the Campy wheels will stay on the EVO.

^^^ The contrast of the tan sidewalls looks so nice. HOT.

Very nice Haps. Nice touch with the Campag and Deda components...

Poor photo with a couple of staging defects,* but:

So, what do you think? I'm in the process of slowly changing things out, but it's a work-in-progress for sure. I like it.

My feeling on bikes like this....you should go with black bar tape and saddle.
the frame/fork/post/stem already have the black/white contrast.

In general, when you have a "loud"/high contrast color scheme on the frame, I think that the components should try to disappear somewhat.

I agree...

Blk looks gooder

Nice Colnago! As sporty as white saddle and bar tape look, they are what we always called "future black."

New build, done at last. Mix of used, repurposed, and new parts.

I like the build, but unsure of your use of blue. I think that would look a little better with black all around.

I thought the same thing, but then i thought i shouldn't be recommending that all bikes be all black.

I think this is one case where a blue saddle & blue bar tape might go well.
Bar tape looks a little chunky tho. Might go with a Fizik Microtex.

So close to being hot but the blue ruins it for me.

Sorry, I hate black bar tape. Never use it. Tape is Specialized Roubaix. Personal choice.
