I'm sure the BH is a great bike, and I like a bit of blue, but that color scheme is not to my taste. It is set up well, but the brake track wear on the front makes me wonder why one would even bother getting any black anodized rims...

I am going with hot. As far as the blue. I give it bonus points because it is not black and red. Although I think I would like it better if the blue was darker, it looks almost like the aqua that was popular for cars in the early 90's but that could be lighting.

I'm skinny and I'm fast, maybe I'll get a free bike :) (that's a pretty funny statement in itself)

So many times I've heard guys talk the talk but can't walk the walk. Everyone thinks they are fast until they ride with someone who truly is...

What's your average MPH?

Depends on if I dial up my guads to 400w or not...
I did see a number higher than 400 watts once though so I must be fast...

Well - I have the same saddle, so that part is okay. Otherwise, IMO it is the biggest waste of spending on a nice Colnago that should but doesn't rate HOT in this iteration...color scheme not to my taste is all...

rkwaki 07-31-13 01:39 PM

On a side note that Colnago is a beautiful bike just a very recreational rider setup. Nice components, beautiful frameset, poor pic.

I won it by guessing 8 or 9 out the the 21 stage winners right in the TDF at a contest for Hi-tech bikes here in SD. It was a nation wide contest…very cool to have actually won something in my life.

The blue is actually better in person, either way it's a team bike that matches our kits perfectly..so I really can't complain with the deal that we got.

Ahhhhh man I can't believe you actually answered it (I knew how you got it) - I wanted to see who would be the first that said the link didn't work.
