New theft, New project

Upgrades time. New Ultegra 6800, finally went for the CK headset and compact bars. Still toying with the idea of amber walls so i'm thinking about some Bonty R3's in Natural to replace the current Pro-Race 4's.

Any suggestions on what next, other than one spacer above the bars (and in carbon) ?

I've got two sat waiting to be put on.

Nothing wrong with good old Gale 4030 British engineering - well, not much anyway.

That's weird, it looks similar to mine (28mm for c40) and I can point the saddle to the sky if I need.
Do you have a close up of the clamp?

Breso, figured it out last night, there was a little bolt on the front side that adjusted it. Absolute ball-ache to get to but flattened it out last night.

I have that same post on my C40 and also find it an absolute ball ache to adjust.

I love the look of those wheels, lovely build!

I'm sure I saw that colnago heading down towards clapham yesterday about 7.30pm, and if it was then it looks a lot better in the flesh than it does in those photos (and it already looks good in the photos)

Yep, that would have been me, probably out of breath trying not to be overtaken. Agreed it looks better in the flesh....annoyingly ! ha.

Nice!

Must have been some newer seatpost... Glad you sorted, now just the spacers left.
I'm not big fan of "downhill" hoods but I guess they are like this for comfort reasons ;)

Nice

No you're right, they do need a tweak upwards, but just not keen on re-wrapping the bars so just been living with it for now.

New saddle is next on the list i think - not sure if a brooks cambium might look out of place + add a bit of weight ?!? I know it's a pretty subjective thing but every brooks i've had has been super comfy ...

Right, last few pics, stem flipped over, black spacers in, hoods up. Took her out for a test ride and it's very good fun. That's it for me now, track bike next !!!

I like the way the stem matches the top of the shifters!

Well done, now is perfect!

Leave it with black tyres. Looks great. For future reference: Go second-hand with the CK headsets. You can get them in great condition for half the new price, in an assortment of colours and sizes, and they last forever.
