No. Cool paint job though. Does anyone know who painted it? I found no provenance of this being actual wood.

Looks like its plywood, most likely marine grade.

The hole in the fork for the front brake looks like wood and the logos look carved.

It also appears that wilier confirmed it is actually wood in the comments of this boring video:

Yep, saw it years ago - it is wood, not paint.

Assuming the bike is rideable, I am very impressed. It appears to be the same spec as my 2010 Cento1, which is an extension of my body at this point. I'd love to give the wooden one a nice long ride. It's a shame that will probably never happen.
