Colnago C64 Mapei

I thought I would not ever need to buy another frame, but this is too good to pass on.

The Velocolour version is very good,

But they ask 700$ for a one colour repaint, I guess this Mapei paint job which they claim took 60 work hours to do, would be maybe 2-3 times that, plus shipping 2 ways etc....

I think I can live without the Serifs

Yup, leave the type face to the classic one. By far the best. And what I have on mine!!

That C60 has the right font, but having a base color white, it looks more like the Dream than like the original C40

Very pretty anyway
