I'm a Shimano guy, but I do have to admit that there's something about a Colnago C-50 with Record carbon stuff. "Soul"... dunno... but cool, yeah.

Here's an analogy:

Colnago C-50 with Carbon Record (I'd love to have) is like a Ferrari... beautiful and fast, but has to be maintained very carefully or it does not run at it's full potential.

Litespeed Vortex with Dura Ace is like a Porsche... beautiful and fast, and pretty much bullet proof.
