    Well can you see it basically, and if so what headset are you using? thanks

    We're at cross purposes - I don't have it yet, it's at the LBS.

    I've ordered a Record headset for it.

    I just looked at their site... no mention of Colnago!

    Called them, but the bloke I needed to speak to was on day off!
    Call tomorrow, but doesn't appear to be any discount... Price quoted £3099.
    But, they had a red one... :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:

    Welll worth the tiny upcharge for the MTBK. In my experience the clearcoat is also a much more durable finish (or lack thereof) than any paint job. Let us know how it goes!

    Speak to Mike at Maestro, you probably won't get a cheaper Colnago anywhere and he's a cool bloke to talk to, straight talking no bull.

    For the OP this is a pic of my wife, do you think it will be good enough to swap for the EPS? She was having a bit of a rough day when the pictures were taken! :shock:

    My Nero Corsa looked better than that - not impressed......
    I voted no but then you didn't include a photo of your family :lol:
    I'm sure it's a lovely bike though...
