Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Please Help Identify This Bike/Mfgr!!!

The photos I had of it got deleted.

It is an all carbon frame that is half painted white, half clear over the carbon fiber. By half I mean if you are sitting on the bike, you'll see white on one side of the top tube, CF on the other. This half painted look extends to the fork and the rest of the bike, so if you look at it from one side, it looks like an all white bike. From the other, a raw carbon bike.

The red and the raw carbon have a red pinstripe between them over the entire bike. Certain details, like the inside of the fork, are all red.

The bikes were definitely made in Italy and the frame where in the $1500 range. It is not a Cervelo or other super well known brand.

If I recall correctly the bike was offered in a couple of other color options.

I have spent hours searching on Google to no avail. Please if you know it, pass it on!

Carbon frame made in Italy? I don't think this exists.

I think we're talking about a Colnago here, but I'm unable to easily find some pictures of it. If anyone finds any, I'm interested too.

Thanks for the responses everyone, let me clarify a few things.

It is not a Cervelo, Colnago or other well known frame. Definitely not.

The mfgr was very clearly listed as an Italian manufacturer on the website, dunno about the actual factory location.

There was a guy selling one on eBay last October-ish from Wisconsin, which is how I came across it originally. The bike with 105-ish components went used for about $1500 if I recall.

And it's not a Fondriest, just went through the site, and it looks similar but no.
