    The only reason I know is that Ive recently sourced a RSCG and on examining it I was impressed with the new style Matte post with gloss black decals. Ive had a couple of 59's and both had your type of post so I don't know whether Ive just managed to get the latest type or whether some suppliers are still using old stock. Both do the same job I suppose.

    Just out of interest what's the waiting time for delivery on one of these RSCG LTD colour ways ? Seat post sounds like a nice updated touch - lucky boy !!!

    Hi Baby! Not really sure on the 'normal' waiting times I guess its a case of 'who you know', Ernesto and I go back a long way so Im very fortunate with very rapid delivery times. Beautiful frames though.

    Its almost all done, I was going to ride it today for the first time but the 25mm Pro4's I'd bought fit too tightly so I need some 23mm ones.

    So the whole bike is Italian and you put French rubber on it?

    Is that b/c they're the parts that touch the ground hence get grubby? :-)

    That's quite a statement to make, poor French...
    When a cyclist has a disagreement with a car; it's not who's right, it's who's left.
  • Great job, that's a beautiful bike !!

    nice! do you happen to know the tire clearance? looks like you're running Zipps. what tire size do you have and how do they fit? i'm thinking of getting Enve 3.4 and curious if it fits.
    Been steadily buying parts:

    Need to tape the bars and neaten up the EPS wires around the bars then I will chop the steer, I have left it massive on purpose. Got the bubble wrap on the tubes to stop the bars whacking them while I am building it up!

    Makes an S-works SL4 seem a bit dull and uninvolving in comparison yeah?
