sounds like a dream bike....who cares what others would have done. If it sings to you, that's all that matters.

But, in case you're interested, I'd would have gone compact instead of standard....but that's just me.

Not much to improve on that kind of set-up. Congratulations. Please post a photo or two of your new ride!

Took my new Bike out for its first ride yesterday - I am in love!!!! Money well spent I have to say, the machine is a thing of beauty - the mile pass effortlessly, I went out planning to do a short 70km and ended up doing 130km.

Colnago is king!!!

Do what you can justify in your heart, that's all.

Congrats on your new bike.
