I wasn't speaking literally
Yeah, I know. the black was certainly is dubious, especially with the PDM colours.
I am surprised at how heavy my Concorde Colombo lo pro's weight (I had thought it was a really high end frame when I got it) compares to my Aende lo pro.
@Trunkie 's Concorde should be here.

I wasn't speaking literally. Those carbon frames are from the last years of Concorde's existence (the blue one, never seen one like that black one). They didn't produce those frames themselves (they never produced any bike themselves as they had no real production unit; they bought low end bikes everywhere they could find them for a decent price in Belgium and The Netherlands, and the high end bikes in Italy) but when carbon made it's grand entree, they didn't even try to develop something themselves, they just bought stuff and putted 'Concorde' on it. When I was racing back in the early and mid nineties, you had 2 or 3 brands that had the same monocoque frameset. I think that's how they speeded up their end.
