  1. I like how they’re talking about how Italian the bike is and show them putting a Brooks saddle on it (I know Brooks is owned by and Italian company but I still associate them with England).

  2. Fantastic video and it helps to understand why it costs so much. I rather pay $18k for this than $12k-15k that most people pay for a bike made in China from a mould.

  3. Now if only there was an Italian saddle manufacturer…😂 Videography is beyond next level in this feature. Well done! I hope the camera slingers and editors are proud. They should be.

  4. The bike looks great, I love it. But there's a part of me that feels like Colnago & Campagnolo are slipping back from the pack – I'd love to see a high-performing aero bike from Colnago (similar to an Aeroad or Venge). Especially with Tadej riding it!
