    Genuine response - provided I can get this to fit me I’m having one.
    Rare these days a bike gives me ‘that feeling’. Last was when the Venge Vias was released, I ordered Sept and it arrived a week before Christmas. It then sat for 3 months waiting for the better weather. I didn’t care in the slightest simply because of the ‘feeling’

    If I won the lottery I’d 100% buy one or two. The bike is way too good for me but I’d happily be seen crawling up climbs and brake screeching down descents.

      Oh yes this isn't a bike for the "one bike" person is it, it's for someone who already has the S-works etc. Haha I'm that guy too :D

    Buy a bike that fits you well, affordable to maintain, and fun to ride.. Anything else is a waste to time and money

    Well they asked the product lead who this bike is for - he was really puzzled by the question - "for our professional teams of course" was the answer.
    I mean they (Colnago) have the C68, the 4rs, a retro bike and whatnot and for people who want to have an aero bike, they have the y1rs.
    Do non professionals need that bike? No - but the same is true for every other bike which costs more than 5k Euros. No one needs an SWorks tarmac with top specs, besides the pros.
    If you need such a bike, you don't have to pay for it, because you will have a team which provides it for you.
    If someone has to money and wants to have a top end bike, he probably already knows his position and rides for years, so i don't see an issue with adjustability.
    Good looking bike, will probably be fun to ride as well. But too expensive for 99%+ of people which is ok.

    Colnago is not overpriced - it’s a race bike for Pogacar.
    UAE who own Colnago do not care whether you like it or not.

    Do you push 40-45 km/h on your own, for 30-40 minuts? And that amount of money, then its up to you buying.
    I dont. Not speed nor money.
    Procyclists get these bikes as they reach speeds to profit from these marvels of aereobikes.
    Average riders dont.
