Man… it’s been a while since i swung by the shop… I’m gonna have to go sometime soon.
Pretty sweet looking bike, but MAN, that is a lot of advertising in one shot.
Ya, that’s like looking at a beautiful woman that has too many tattoos.

Given the Bora’s, is this for the same guy with the already gimoungous bike collection?

Mmmmmmmm, Euro Campy bike porn. Those wheels are ultra sexy.
My quess is the owner is too busy making money to actually ride her.
am I the only person who doesn’t like that frame? The track version looks so much better.
I think there are a few tiny blank spaces left on the frame where they could still add a logo or two.

I’m with you on that one.
Am I seeing this correctly… does that fork require the use of an ergostem??
Stem is integrated into the front end of the bike, so yes it’s required. Comes with frame if I remember.

Mr Magoo, just a friendly reminder that your biannual eye exam is scheduled for December 5th!

Perhaps, but that frame has much wider clearances between the wheels and frame than one that’s in Scotland. Perhaps it’s a different frame size that’s making it look slightly off.
Why hasn’t anyone integrated the brakes into the frame yet? They could just build it in and make it super aero.

BMC has done basically that.
What do the Bontrager levers go for? I’d like to get a set of them, they look nice and aero.
do u know if the Bontrager Carbon Brake levers will fit on the Vision Base bar?
BMC has done basically that.
De Rosa used to integrate their rear brake caliper into their Kron frame. With the new 2007 Kron frames the brakes are mounted outside the frame. I wonder if there was some kind of problem with this design.
Canyon did it for a prototype at Interbike this year. I believe they were hydraulic and only one of the brake pads actually moved, the other was just set close enough that the wheel would flex into the other pad.
hmmm, i don’t know about these new campy brake calipers. they look very nice and all, and they have shaved 36g from the weight, but think of the airflow issues. i can’t help imagine that they increase Cda by some distinctly measurable amount. got to decide, because i’m building up my wife’s new custom built Spectrum Ti Super …

Or are you talking about the brake cables only?
