A little over exposed but I'm not a photographer and you get the idea.

Some mango tape would be go really well with that bike, instead of the blue.

Too much orange. The blue is matched to our team kits (as is the orange).

It's mine, but not in my possession yet, so I can't take my own pictures. I'll have it two weeks from today...

Well that sucks. It shouldn't have been upside down....I really wasn't ready to let the world know that my bike can defy gravity. I was going to wait until my first race to show off that feature.

It is. The first build suffered RD hanger snappage, resulting in much damage to components and frame. Had it blasted and powdered. @slowjamz, I've done all black before, in fact, this frame used to wear all black. Red is a change. They were out of black cages, so oddly, that is what turned the build to red.

Colnago = HOT, but need to fix the crank angle and lose the space above the stem, your valves are not at 6 o'clock (in this picture they are, but weren't in the first), and having a computer on top of the stem is apparently gauche. How'd I do? But still, it's a Colnago, so again, HOT!
In all seriousness, that bike is hot, and I love the paint job.

We test a lot of rims and other components. If you look closely the rims are mismatched and are actually from two different carbon factories - same story for the hubs. To keep everything on the DL we brand every rim/part with our logo (web address) which saves me from answering a lot of questions I don't want to answer.
The colours are our team colours.
