that is perfection in every way (other than it needs veloflex gumwall tires!).

Now that is how a great bike should look. The pinnacle of aesthetics IMO.

Saw that and pretty cool BUT

“I think Shimano did its best to celebrate this anniversary. These parts are perfect, in my opinion. Discreet, yet eye-catching, much better than Campagnolo’s 50th-anniversary groupset (ouch, I think many collectors will disagree with me on this one).”

A little '25' didn't make it more eye-catching, IMHO..

Of COURSE I'll disagree as a 'collector'..

Is that thing disc compatible

would make for a schweet hipster fixie conversion

WOW! I discovered Zullo about ten years ago in an Australian cycling magazine and interestingly, it was also a blue frame that got my attention. Just love his work and this one is incredible. Love that stem.

A good reminder of how much I don't care for black components.

It wasn't just the "25" there was more far superior Titanium too.

Not every bike needs the "standard Paceline build."

The polished, slightly deeper rims really balance with the chromed fork and the polished groupset.

And I think the black tires let the frame stand out more against all of the silver. Gumwalls (while I almost exclusively prefer them) would be too much, especially against the subtle gold logo.

begs for Nitto!

Hmm..did they anodize the titanium neon green so you could actually see it to make this group more 'eye catching'?? What was titanium on the shimano group?

Just pulling one's leg..yup, it's pretty, and only 1000 groups vs Campag 50th 15,000..80th Campag, altho just carbon-y, is pretty too, IMHO.
