Yes, I agree not too sure, but this bike is now at 900g for the frame, that is pretty damn impressive. That was one of the issues I had with the Paris is that it was quite heavy for the price. Now at this weight Pinarello suddenly becomes that little bit more tempting. Now all I need is to win the lottery.

It looks quite cool, but think its a little chunky. I prefer lugged frames..

I had a little play with the colouring in section under My Prince and have come to the conclusion that I am crap at colouring in !!

My elder daughter thought the colouring thing was cool. She has spent most the afternoon coming up with different coloured bikes. She has also run out my ink cartridge printing half of them out as well.
