  • I bought this denti frame for the miss. Have a full Dura Ace 7400 groupset and wheels with silver rims.

    I'm not quite sure about the saddle - bar Tape - tub choice. I want it to look bright and tender.

    Was thinking about pink white bar tape with a gradient, a perforated white saddle and black / white tubs.

    Any thoughts on that?

  • That's awesome! No to black/white tubs.

  • Preferably something other than gumwall, but with a contrast color. Single colored tyres look too big.

  • Sweet frame, reckon pink benotto tape could work. Regarding tyres, the only tasteful options are black, gumwall or green striped Vittoria Pavé. I think Wiggle is the only retailer still selling those

  • Lovely frame. Pink and dark blue are really quiet a couple! I don’t think you’ll find many enthusiasts of colored tires here. That’s because a lot of people here tried that at one point or another in their lives and hold on to all black/gum walls since. It’s just that I’ll always bring to mind the fixies of the early 2000.

  • I also favor gumwalls, but wanted to try something new here..
    Something like a Corsa Evo CX with a white line, not colored.
    The benotto tape also came to my mind, but I planned on using it on my own bike.

  • It's gonna look ace with Dura Ace (no pun actually intended!)

  • Maybe a very light "gum" wall like Vittoria Corsa G+. Then I'd personally go for good old black saddle/white (maybe pink) bar tape. I think the paint job is busy enough already (in a very good way!), so would prefer single colour tape to a fade. Lovely frame.

  • Wow, is this the frame??

    You paid that much?

  • Got a black 3ttt Record Denti Panto stem in black if intrested.

  • met with this guy in vienna, got a better price. checked with denti, is legit and in very good condition. may be interested in that stem if 100mm or shorter..
    I think I might go with a black saddle, maybe also black bars.. since group and wheels also have black for contrast color..

  • This is going to be nice! Looking good with the gumwalls.

  • Yes, black saddle and bars will go very well on this one. Looking great already!

  • I like the black, but the girlfriend says it's too dark. So here some variations ..
    The pelten shade tape's color is too Magenta, and benotto pink is a little bit off to make it look weird. White looks boring, what about the Red within the decals?

  • I like number two

  • So here it is with black contrast.. Quite nice, I like it. But she does not :/ Ok well, I guess it's her money.

    I tried different tapes, and think the pink benotto celo tape fits best. Not a 100% match but the shinyness let's you get away with it. I thnk. I will also go for white hoods and a white ladies turbo saddle, since the new Selle Italie models have black rails.

    I threw some cheap MKS pedals on because the DA pedals had black backplates. And she would struggle too much with toe clips ^^ either way. The liners I changed to grey because I didn't want to distract from the frame, but now I think a contrast color would look better. White probably. Ok, so all white now :)

    I think she will need a 80mm stem with this frame size. I tried a 3T stem but is looks totally wrong in there. If I don't find a cheap DA one I will switch back to my 120mm Dura Ace.

  • hmm.. I think this could work, but would look better with other rims.
