I love that its still running cantis. I hate that its is shown with s(h)ram.
Nice frameset though.

Things I like:

The fact that all the tubes are straight. Just looks awesome.
The gumwalls.


Things I'm suspicious of:
World champ rainbow stripes, italian colors, contrasting lugs... it is a bit much, but doesn't look terrible.
Logos on wheels, stem and seat post.

It is an example of devolution, no?

It is an example of devolution, no?

Or a throwback using some modern technology but not trying to be on the cutting edge.

(Not mine but I always liked this bike, belongs to a guy in bf.net c&v)

I regret not buying those wheels.

Alan won a lot of CX world cups back in the day. Interesting that took them this long to come with something more in what they used to manufacture.

Remember years ago their road bikes and CX bikes were just ugly. But lately they have been doing quite good. Hope they come back to sponsor world tour teams.
