MGOOF : Modern groupset on old frame

What's not working for you, comfort or aesthetics?

Silver brakes, cable stops, seatpost and cages - shallow carbon rims on silver hubs, gumwalls and either black tape or white saddle - done

Desticker the wheels, bdhu, burn those bottle cages, fix the saddle angle, black bar tape with black plugs.

Do you like these frames?

I've gone off a lot of the fancy Colnago paintjobs, especially the chrome head lugs which I feel are a step too far.

Imo it's cohesive. It's a busy Italian frame. It's not meant to be subtle. Sure you can put black tape on, but why would you on a shiny Colnago?

I'd probably go:

• bottle cages
  
• black stem
  
• plain seatpost (silver or black, not both - altho it mirrors the cranks)
  
• silver hubs and spokes, carbon rims
  
• silver, black or white bar end plugs
  
• white cables
  
• photography by spotter
  

I'd go with bdhu, white Flite, white pedals, silver brake calipers, silver cages and silver Shamals for full zing, or some silver chorus/record hubs laced to silver rims and tanwall tyres if the Shamals are unobtanium/too spendy.
