Can't wait to see the chainset

I think those are going on a project for James Cyclingtips.. they will be on an Enigma frameset..

It's too bad Sales Guy doesn't chime in quite like he used to, as he could probably confirm. I am sure I'm not the only one that misses his insider info to the up and coming in the industry.

It is, I got them from the EU Marketing guy Arajan at a trade show, and they're too nice not to share. Suggestions have been pushed for the Centenary Groupset........

What are we looking at in photo 2? :confused:

[nmrt]

methinks it is a campy hydro caliper...but in silver.
it is the silver that is the big deal, i'm guessing.

If Campy made parts that look like that I would consider buying a new groupset...

What's old is new again. Seriously, I could buy that group right now if it was available.

That's probably the Australian company that does the polishing. Stunning, show quality work. Very nice folks to work with also. I was going to have 'em do a Potenza group for me but the cost was too much to consider given that it's the low end of Campy group (functionality aside, as it works great). If Campy came out with top shelf or near top shelf all alloy group, even at a goofy price, I'd sell a bike to buy it, as much as I actually dislike the looks of the new crank design!

The "C" logo on the groupset is the Cinelli logo.......

Not mentioning the dura ace 7810 pedals, the best generation IMO. Newer carbon ones wear out too quick.

[54ny77]

yup. they do gorgeous pantographing.

check out the potenza levers on their images page: they pantographed the traditional campagnolo lettering/font in vertical arrangement with a box around it. attention to detail unlike anything i've ever seen.

and the before/after photos....just awesome.

Saw a bike here recently thaat had the same custom work up but in Belgium colors. same dudes do it. Looked pretty amazing.

[AngryScientist]

wow, that cannondale crankset looks really great. all of it does really. impressive work, for sure!

[Oxford_Guy]

My concern would be that, as the polishing removes any anodising / clear coat, that the bare aluminium could be prone to tarnishing/pitting, though probably less of an issue if the bike in question is not ridden during winter, when salt etc. is used liberally on the roads.

[andeww]

^ Yes i have always been a big fan of the hollowgram cranks. They are sweet!

[54ny77]

Simichrome or good alu polish and a soft cloth + elbow grease once a month = gleaming goodness.
