Black Colnago C60 - Help with build ideas

[Latestart]

Got a smokin deal on a C60. According to Clean39T, frame may be a bit big so building from parts on hand for the first version of the bike. I will have to buy a few items, help me choose. I did a fair amount of checking an feel comfortable it's authentic.

What I have
- Frame kit with fork, seat post (see picture)
- Campy Record 11sp mech groupset with crank
- Jagwire Elite "link" cables in silver for brakes/shifting
- Fulcrum racing zero with 25mm or 28mm depending on what fits
- Seat

Open
- Stem (not sure, maybe 100)
- Bars (42cm) with garmin extension
- Bar Tape color? Red? Black?
- pedals (power?) I have some Shimano and speedPlay around

Mostly looking for stylistic compatibility. Enve stem? Which bars?

Here is your bar tape

That is 'all-in'!

How about shiny red?

What's best?
1) Colnago
2) Deda
3) 3T or
4) Unknown
5) Enve

I have a Colnago I built as all black. Every single speck. I hate black bikes except for this one

This looks pretty good.. but options other than copying?

[Rev Bob Dobbs]

I would highly recommend:

Fizik cyrano r1 stem
Fizik cyrano 00 seat post
Fizik 00 handlebar
Fizik 00 saddle

Campy superrecord

WTO 35mm blackout

Fizik logo-less

There is something about how the fizik components look of the c60. Its is incredible IMO

wto wheels, deda stem and bars, keep the bar tape black. if you want color wear a loud jersey. that bike is classy, keep it that way.

How I had mine built up. If I would do it all over again. Deda for all touch points.

You need to build that bike by going painfully out of your way to keep the appearance murdered out. Nothing with logos or anything that will compete with the details on the frame. Once you get this dialed, then fcuk it up a little at the end with one thing that's way off like Spongebob bidons. Keep the rims and tires all black. No logos. Go to great lengths to commit to black—the only colors acceptable are tones of black—and definitely a Fizik cockpit.

All Italian option
Red jagwire brake cable housing
Green jagwire shift cable housing.
Left side Green Supacaz handlebar tape
Right side Red Supacaz handlebar tape
White securing electrical tape for the handlebar tape
Colnago Stem
1x red anodized water bottle cage
1x green anodized water bottle cage


Or, go completely blacked out.

Can that frame be run mechanical?

In that case, I would say a 100mm stem is going to look oddly short on this size frame, and maybe cause handling to be not as good as it should be?
