Yeah, 'tis true. I guess I don't really think about it because I'll never be able to afford half of the bike, but they're really amazing machines. If I wanted some style, I'd totally do a Colnago Super

i like the fork, but that frame will aways be poorly designed unless youre a funny looking chap thats all tibia and no femur. the chainstays are short, but that could have been achieved without sacrificing sensible fit with a curved seattube or a cutout.
