yep, pdxmark is right. Witchever you feel fits you better and rides the best, and will make you ride the most is the chosen one.

filmore, what you said about health is absolutely correct. Having a high end bike makes me ride more wich therefore makes me better. A nice frame with record or D/A will make me better, but not because of looks, weight or stifness but me. It makes ME better and makes me go out and ride.

I came up with my $1000 premium based on the typical highend carbon frame is about $3000 and a C50 is $4000. $4000 happens to be the purchase price of my complete 2004 Trek 5900($4800 retail). I'm sure the C50 is a great frame but with the premium and a short warranty I couldn't justify the purchase.

ALL BS-wich is ok, i understand your thinking, years ago i couldn't either, but then I rode one.

If you own a colnago it's a sign of class. It shows you have a great appreciation for life and the finer elements of it. Sure other things will work, but you may not be having fun while doing it. If it is just as fun then colnago's are for you, but before you make the assumtion ride one first.

TerryB described it perfectly, to alot of people the fact that it's a colnago is worth 10 times the $1000 premium.

Maybe in a year or two I can own one and the only other bike with any ride qualities about equal to the C-50(in my opinion, don't want to start a flame) is the Look 585

When you talk about a $1000 premium to ride a C50, I frankly don't see it.
