Aligning tubular tyres isn't easy... That's why most do it for you!

The brake cable, I thought?

...and a fucking shite clamp it is. Am I dreaming or is it possible to buy third party hardware for this design??

I changed all the mounting hardware to KCNC stuff and POP products cylinder top clamps. I've got to say I did it for weight reasons as the stock rocker in Ti was overwieght in my opinion. The change needed a small amount of sanding of the saddle rocker area on the post to get the correct radius for the KCNC saddle rocker but I didn't have a slip when I was using the post.

The Gianni Mota frame is fantastic .. disclaimer I'm a big fan of Italian flag paint jobs!

That was my thought, yes.

is that original fork?

I have to say that this line of thinking really irritates me...

Amen, brother.

Mind you I'll go for the Madone if the bike fitter tell me it fit me the best, even thought I dislike Trek as a company.

Still having trouble with your sitbones?

That Merckx is perfect! Columbus air?

Jens won today just to prove Ed wrong. Here is his antiporn.

Still having trouble with your sitbones?

funnily enough, I've had the most comfortable 70 miles ride ever with a Brooks B17 Special, first time ever I arrived at a destination not feeling any pain, numb, and I rode without bibs short.

MY only concern is when it start to break in.

is that original fork?

sure is the frame was made by Hugo De Rosa hense the heart in the lug...

I am working on purchasing the exact same frame but De Rosa branded.

Tubing is the same Columbus Oval that Colnago used on the CX series I believe

The only thing more boring than Ed are the boring fuckers who take every opportunity to disagree with and ridicule his views.

yeah, but ed's not boring...

...at least not in this "it's a bike forum, what did you expect?" context.

Drilled forks on a track bike

The drilled rear bridge pissed me off the most, shame as its one of the nicest track bikes I have seen...
