I may or may not be about to buy a Capo frame, the plan is either getting it stripped and polished, or given a tasteful coat of paint. this is inspiration:

It will replace my Rapha Condor Lavoro, which as much as I love it has always been a bit big.

!!!

That purple track does more for me than any early 90's c-dale ever did.

Yeah, I'm thinking purple might be the way to go but dont want to just copy the above. Dark metallic green or maroon perhaps, or champagne gold, but that might be a bit risky.

Also planning on using it as a hillclimb weapon, so stripped and polished is the logical solution, I just need to see how much its gonna cost.

Alpina forks look great on that frame

Dammit had one of these in red which I really liked

Seriously lush, wanna strip and paint my caad now

DO IT! DO IT NOW!

I loved that bike. RIP Capo.

Red22 ring I got from @tommmmmmm is on, and the bike is pretty much ready for spring.

I'm just grumpy I missed out on post 7700. #DA4LYFE

Wanna buy all my 7700? #PerfectWorkingOrder

nah, mate I'm good. #gotitallalready

What's the biggest 700c tyre I can fit on my CAAD12? 28 or 30?

Internet says 28

Unfortunately all 28mm tyres are not the same...

depends (on the tyre and the rim but 28 is on the safer side)

Of course not all tyres come up the same, but perhaps 28s are more likely

Going to borrow a friends strada biancas for a trial fit and see

28 Schwalbe Pro one, any larger and you risk stopping the front wheel avec gravel.
