Cipo loves him some Cipo.

Handsome bike.

I liked that video more than I was expecting.

Oh man, I want one of those. More style than a truckload of Treks. :)

well made film. long on style, bit short on substance. wonder if the same is true for the frame? cipo looks fit, no?

Cippo is one of the only cyclists that can pull off white. I want to ride Cippo. :banana: ....Wait, that didn't sound right. :eek:


Looks interesting though.

okay, lemmy rephrase.

I hope I look like that when I am 45--Slicked-back mop, euro facial hair, no shirt, white shorts--and all!

:cool:

I don't know about you, but I wouldn't be cruising at 95 km per hour without a helmet. See video at 5:45. More balls than me indeed. I agree, he has aged well.

The bike doesn't do much for me. I'm I missing something?

no, you aren't missing anything. It has a sorta cool bike by the numbers thing going for it. Kinda lacks the sex.

Still, no one would complain having one in the garage.

Good video. It is still all about Mario...the guy is consistent!!

And that town square shot sure looks like Lucca, Italy.

Cipo personally injects the sex in to the frame prior to shipping

Glad they didn't ruin cipo with a dorky helmet, the guy's hair is good for at least 1000 more bike sales next year.

pretty nice video overall, the cipo riding parts were the best part.

When bike racing meets the Hong Kong style meets gay porn, you get Bicicletta MCipollini.

BBD,

That was painful.

A way too long commercial. :beer:

I'm pretty sure Cippo's hair exceeds the EU standards for a helmet...

WickedWheels

I wonder just how italian-made that bike really is?

Assuming that the bike pictured is exactly like their standard production models then the finish on it is really good.

Looks like BBD has a new handle The Zebra

I remember sending a picture of a saddle bag of a bumble bee, he responded it was to loud, can you imagine....


Would not mine sitting at the table w/Cippo having a fine tuscany breakfeast.

That's just every day normal kit for Dave. :eek:

Yep, that little plastic covered styrofoam cap will save your bacon at 60 mph....

Not sure about the bike...but I do miss having Cipo in the peleton.

Well, it looks like they are made in Florence. It looked liked the techs had MC or MV on their overalls. I figured it could be MV Agusta, but I think they are in Milan.

Did anyone get a hint of "gladiator" in that ad?

Let's just say, I wouldn't ride past a zoo where there were Zebras in heat in that Kit. You better be INCREDIBLY FAST to pull that off.

-could you imagine Chipo on that show "Jersey Shore"?
-what is stiffer, his hairdo with all the gell or the frame?

He'd be great on Jersey Shore.

I've had a spill close to 30 mph and was glad I had a helmet on top. Not sure how much more damage would result from 60 mph but I would like to think something is better than nothing. :rolleyes: To each his own.

I've always liked Cipo. Kind of the Jon McEnroe of tennis being I played the sport for years and years,.

Agree wish I was in that shape for my age. Though think the guys gets laid enough without needing to go shirtless. :rolleyes:

Cippo always had "style" and he still looks "mahvelous". A podium girl magnet.
