I bought a CT-2 as my "dream bike" at the start of the year, and I'm still grinning like the cat that got the cream. Obviously I expected it to be a big improvement on my 8-year old 105-equipped TCR, but I wasn't prepared for just how much better it was going to be. The ride is sensational as the bike feels like it sucks itself back down onto the road after every bump. Incredibly comfortable and yet responsive. No problems with Ti + carbon, but obviously I haven't had it long. Be aware that Colnago don't warrant their bikes for use by the "larger rider" - I think 90kg is the upper limit.
