I know - it is totally over the top. But I loved the juxtaposition of the red white and blue on an Italian bike. Now I wish I'd gotten something more benign. I actually didn't take it to France in 2003 because of how it is painted.
I think I will rename him "Barack"....

That's PURTY. And not just because I'm staring at the Record shifters, I swear. You'll have to tell us how the hub and lights work out, because I'm tempted to use the local bike store's wheelbuilding classes as a chance to put one into the tandem.

Notice how the 3rd pic looks like 2 big eyes, wheel is a nose and bars are hair and ears?

WOW what a beauty. The lights look fabulous. Have you had a chance to check them out at night??
What model Col is that?? CT-2??
You are a lucky girl. I wish Colnago still had a Titanium model (LOL not like I could get one even if they did).
Now I just need to see it in person so I can really oggle it.
The most effective way to do it, is to do it.
