Yaay, I was hoping for some bike porn at the end of this thread, glad there's a happy end!

Needs a brighther picture.

But yeah, that came out great.

Wrong fork though. Had the fork cast and stamped tips but Slowie was slow on the draw so that went to finland.

... true and it's a bit of a pity that the chainstay is no longer chromed but on the whole it's nice to see that the bike got a new lease on life and it does look great as it is!

wow looks great, i want it back now lol

Which Dutch owner on he had a colnago I think maybe In yellow that had a massive fail when the front wheel hit the down tube when braking or hitting a bump!?! Years ago now

that would have been me, i went head first on to the pavement and was scared to ride the bike after that

Oh yeah. And how long ago was that?

23-06-2010 almost a decade ago

Haven’t read back this thread but is this the same frame?

yes it is the same frame, fork has been replaced

10 years...wow

time really does go fast eh

A purer time. Before our knees got
Shot, face injuries were ‘one of those things’ and a basket was what you picked up in a supermarket.
