    I hate it when that happens. You finally decide on what you want and before you know it a year later and it has sold out!

    Ah never mind. At least you can keep the forums going by starting a new thread for every alternative you consider over the next few weeks.

    Odd isn't it. Finally in the position to buy a new bike and I'm finding the whole thing stressful!

    2015 models out soon, probably only in white and red though.

    Radiation man, may I suggest you keep using one single thread for all your questions regarding Colnago frames? Less mess...

    Colnago 2014 red and white clx 3.0 With Ultegra in 52cm frame size in stock - please buy it now and stop these threads filling up the forum :D

    Edit- just seen you need a 48 cm frame, these are available for pre-order at the same shop apparently...

    Given that the op has had this thread and others running for so long now I don't think he really wants a solution just some friends to talk to :)

    A matter of opinion of course - about time the mods binned his threads

    While I can't stop the OP from opening a legitimate thread, I can advise it that maybe this is getting a bit ridiculous, hoping he gets the message. :wink:

    So what happens if he opens a new thread with yet another 'legitimate' Colnago CLX 3 question tomorrow? :wink:

    Of course, the OP could always buy a bike that wasn't red and white and get the colour scheme changed. It wouldn't even need to be repainted; I know someone who knows a great place to get some decals done.

    it'll probably be about a 2015 model in blue and white.
    Then asking about removing spacers getting the bars level with the saddle.

    I will happily put together a kickstarter to help fund a red and white Colnago clx in 48cm size, even if I have to fly to Italy and weave the carbon fibre myself if it just makes this incessant noise disappear.

    Hm. Is that all it takes? *heads to the new thread button*

    Hit it about 3 times a day, for at least a year, and I will consider your case.

    can the OP post his trek 1.5 in the "your road bike" section?
    If the OP is going to post any Q's about making the trek fit picture of him on it might help!
