Naked

i'm beating myself over asking this, but is the frontwheel 650 or 700? In some pictures they look a lot like 650, but after a little googling on the fork, it looks to be 700c?

700

^unless this guy knows more than me, the forks and wheel are 650

Looks great, i like the carbon cover, it might be cosmetic but it goes with the 75 aero cranks well. Also have you lacquered the frame? or is it raw?

Not a big fan of the carbon on the chainring though - it just seems silly to add, since it doesn't add anything of value(aside from a very small aero advantage)

You're going to hate this then

yes, why?
can someone explain this?
where is mr tester?

I'm here, and I can't explain it. Some people just like to make their bikes worse in order to look different, I suppose.

100% improved using just a mirror:

frame is just raw. i was expecting it to start rusting but it hasn't yet. i love the glossy carbon/polished aluminium/dull steel contrast thats going on

If done properly (which it looks like you have) left side drive is cool. Not a big fan of the carbon on the chainring though - it just seems silly to add, since it doesn't add anything of value(aside from a very small aero advantage)

the carbon makes the chainring at least look like the original one should, so I'm happy with that. and it weighs about 16grams so who cares. and yep it will be more aerodynamic so i can save myself maybe one whole watt per week ;-)

now i have a qqis wheel ;-(

I rode it about 50 miles but I've decided its too small though really, so is definitely for sale

defiantly for sale

As God is my witness, as God is my witness they're not going to lick me. I'm going to live through this and when it's all over, I'll never be hungry again. No, nor any of my folk. If I have to lie, steal, cheat or sell my Pinarello.

Defiantly was the right word, surely?

Anything that splits opinion so much has to be sold in a balls-out, like it or fuck off type way.

(I am hoping you are selling it on with the drivetrain setup included, and that someone else devil-may-care/devil-may-unscrew-my-BB takes it off your hands)

devil-may-unscrew-my-BB

Left hand drive has no bearing on BB unscrewing.

Also, dream on; I think he'd lie, steal, cheat and kill before letting go of those cranks.

Cranks will be being buried in my coffin with me for use in the afterlife

That's the plan for my Corima...

Haha, i know that feeling with certain parts!

Looks very fast, I am defiantly interested in the pinarello when you sell it. :)

Silly question I'm sure but did this frame originally have a 650c front? or were the old forks 700?

frame and seat post for sale if anyones interested.

Ill make a for sale ad later

price?
