Another beauty of mine. I never had time to build it up, and someone else needs to show her off.

Isn't she gorgeous??? That chart is the closest I've seen - obviously, a traditional/non-sloping geometry. The only difference is that the headtube is 100mm/10cm. The seat tube is 51.9cm (c-t)/50cm (c-c) and the top tube is 53 c-c. Feel free to ask any questions - I would much rather this bike went to one of the ladies of TE than to a random stranger!

Oh! Be still my beating heart! I have wanted a pink Italian bike since 1984...alas, I fear this one is too large. People, this is a beautiful, classic bicycle. Who needs carbon whoopsies when Pink Calnagos exist in the world?! Pedal, you have provided a ray of sunshine to my dark days. (But it's still too big
)
ETA: those lugs! Wow!Last edited by tulip; 11-05-2012 at 04:01 AM.

Muirenn, I think this bike would be a great addition to your expanding bike family. Your Pinarello needs someone to converse with in its native language!
(Pedal, if you happen across one of these--or a DeRosa or a classic Merkx--with a 50-cm top tube, um, just let me know, 'kay? I really should keep my mouth shut!)

That's not the exact right chart, since my head tube is 100mm. (Hs on that chart.) I just remeasured and the tt is really closer to 53. And, well, it's such a unique shade of pink - fuchsia fading to pink, really.

That is a lovely bike - the lugs are lovely!!
I can't say enough good gushy things about my Colnago. It's 11 years old - the Ovalmaster in the Fred Rodriguez stars and strips paint job (when he won the US Nat'l championship and was riding for Mapei). It's taken me through many a brevet, even though it's such a "racy" bike. More comfy than you'd expect - and I bet the steel is even better (mine's ti and super stiff).Sarah
When it's easy, ride hard; when it's hard, ride easy.
