i was suggesting blue microtex.
but specalized roubaix tape definitely explains why it looks chunky.

we're just nitpicking. it's that the bike looks very sharp everywhere else, but then it's like oven mitts up front :)

i think you've done well though.

You have cured my curiosity about going to blue bar tape! A somewhat "interesting" mix of black with red and blue accents. but overall not that hot IMO.

I bet you have all of the Blue Man Group's cd's. :p

Super hot Colnago! I generally abhor white spokes, but overall this holds together very nicely.

No, but I do have a blue seatpost clamp coming by slow boat from China....

thanks.

does anyone know if all 3 version of the ergonova have different shapes? i have the pro but for some reason it doesnt look as sharp and compact compare to jgrosser's team. maybe its the thicker bartape that makes it look smaller.

Probably - my bars above are Ergonova Team as well.

Not

They're all identical, I have the Limited..posted about 4-5 pages back.

It's hard to say not hot to a bike, that has high end components. It's warm at the moment. Get rid of the setback and get a longer stem maybe a 90 or a 100. And get black Specialized S-Wraps or Fiziks.

It's nice, but those SMP saddles are so ugly, and you need to trim your fork.

Ugly? SMP is certainly not the common, cookie cutter saddle of the masses... The steerer tube does need a trim but my fitter wants me to ride it for a while just in case, I think he got it right the first time though. Once the fit is dialled in it will also get a white matching Colnago stem.

It'd probably be more lightweight without all them wheel stickers ;) But that's a personal thing of mine. Other than that, pretty hot :)

Yup, you're right! It's the only ugly saddle that looks like that! You should have waited until the bike was done before you posted the pic then but hey, I understand. You just dropped a ton of money (especially in Canadian dollar-bucks), and you wanted some praise quickly, so kudos!! (Except for the ugly saddle)

Wow, Stereotypical, uneducated 'Merican response... You sir, do your countrymen proud. LoL

It's a nice bike, but responding to criticism...

^ you are right, I responded poorly to the troll... <In my best french Canadian accent > "I go to penalty box for two minutes and feel shame..."

I totally agree with you, I was going to remove the "Lightweight" logos but they are painted on to the carbon suface, I didn't want to run the risk of damaging them with acetone...I did seriously consider painting over the white logo with black though.

I don't know why but it seems like a sin to me to remove "Lightweight" from their wheels.

Exactly! Who's gonna know you paid $10K (Canadian Monopoly money) for them if the labels aren't showing?

I rode through Baumont a number of years ago, thought I entered the Twilight Zone... Stop signs said Arret, schools said Ecole. Bizarre!

They are in my top two or three dream wheels. First being Lew's, then tied for second with Mad Fibers.
