    No, it's more like a hyped up tease-you-with-info press release...

    Might be just be bitter that I never got the stamp of approval on my Condor Squadra 2009 :)

    After receiving my OCP stamp from you there is no way I am going to say wrong side, wrong angle, wrong valve alignment, pink pram saddlebag etc.

    I thought the whole point iof the badge is you could say those things... I mean that Cervelo has to be the worst photo ever

    That's not artex. It's the ceiling melting due to the heat generated by my QuadPowertm on the turbo...

    Aaahhhhh! Yes.... Of course it is, silly me :wink:

    Melted/Artexed ceilings are not OCP.
    Get it caulked, or lower your wall braket so I don't have to be subjected to '80 fashion faux pas, again :evil:

    Snow makes a poor garage door Nap. You're in danger of taking away your own OCP badge.....................................................if you weren't El Presidente that is (lucky for you).


    I love Cervelo's me. I'd love one if only just to be able to wear the team kit.

    When I get hold of a decent camera and somewhere decent to take the pics, I will!
  • Are you going to get the team kit as well? Not a fan of team kits usually BUT the Cervello/Castelli kit looks something else IMO.

    Will be interested to hear how you find the brakes. I was considering some in Titanium myself but not 100% they will fit in with the rest of the 5.2 build.

    I used the brakes on my previous frame. I was actually really impressed.

    Not quite as strong as the Sram red ones but good none the less!
  • Cool... will add them to the list. I guess I can send them back if the colour looks a bit odd alongside the other bits. Should look ok though.

    Thought I'd give it a quick run up and down the estate today before going out on the winter bike.

    I actually said as I set off Ho. Ly. SH1T! and started with that giddy laugh you get when you are very, very happy and excited.

    Super stiff, super responsive, smoooooooooooooooth as silk. I was grinning like a fool! The feeling of acceleration when injecting a large dose of QuadPowertm was just amazing.

    Got back on the Litespeed (which is by no means whatsoever a poor frame, it's stiff, light, comfortable!!) and it felt sluggish and flexy in comparison.

    Can't wait to use it on a fast group ride

    :D

    Happy days 8)

    Looks super fly from the pics. By far and away the best colour scheme for a Cervelo.

    That's very nice, and I like black and white (my bikes black and white) but the black and red with a bit of white is how i see cervelo's. They seem to do it in a distinctice way. Anyway it's complete personal choice...

    I like the 2010 S1 too. The 2010 S2 would take some serious upkeep, as nice as it is.
