Already got it. A '94 DeRosa Nuovo Classico, Columbus TSX, all Campy.

Needs new paint now. I'll have it done this winter.
 
Custom Carl Strong steel
AlphaQ GS10 fork
Campy Chorus grouppo (with Record levers)
Campy Zonda wheelset
FSA Wing Pro
Truvativ stem and seatpost
FSA headset
WTB Shadow Stealth Ti
Conti GP 3000

I've got everything on hand except the frame (out for paint). Can't wait to build it and ride it.
 
I have a trek 1500. right now I guess my dream would be a 2 for 1 deal,
a 2006 lemond tete de course for group weekend rides (with the titanium spine) and a 2007 propad disc for commuting.
however its only a dream

I think you are mistaken......

According to his web site, a $400 non-refundable deposit gets you on the waiting list. Final price cannot be determined until he actually gets to your frame, due to the long lead time. He's currently delivering bikes ordered ~18 months ago at a base price of around $2800.
I ordered in Aug 2004....and was quoted a 33 month lead time. He currently is over 4 yerars.

When taking a hydration break on my Monday miles, a man asked me about
my bike; he said that he was in marketing/testing for Porsche and that Porsche
had once put its name on a line of bicycles. First I had heard of this. Any truth?
He seemed to be well versed on other topics.
 
I remember many, many years ago a car-maker's name appeared on a line of bikes. As I remember they were pretty good, but the experiment was short-lived. It could have been Porsche, but I think maybe it was another European name. I know Cadillac & Jeep ave loaned their names to bikes, but the ones I'm thinking about were from the 60's or 70's.

So...short ans...maybe.

I sold a couple of Porshe full suspension bikes. I don't remember why we had them. I think we did a consignment for a Porshe dealer in San Francisco in the mid 90's. They were over-engineered hunks of....... very interesting looking though.
 
Factory promotion?

"Buy a Porsche bicycle; get a Porsche 911S free." ???
That promotion works for me.

Does this work for Ferrari as well? I'd love a free Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano if I went and bought a Colnago CF4:thumbsup:

Sure.. call me up and order a CF 4 and I'll let Ferrari know that you're interested in a car to match.

They might even fly you to Italy to pick it up... no promises, but order the Colnago and I'll look into it for ya:wink5:
 
It should work

The Porsche bicycle with the 911S thrown in is a verrry expensive ride.
I would think the same would be true of a Ferrari bicycle with a Testarosa
thrown in. Purchase of a Colnago anything just won't cut it.

CF 4 = Colnago for Ferrari, 4th version.

Ferrari uses a reputable company to build their bikes.

(isn't the Hummer bike a Montague dept store bike?)
 
A little knowledge is a dangerous thing

Your data on the Colnago-Ferrari connection is superior to mine;
check with the dealership to see if your coupon is still valid.
My original question was about Porsche ever putting their name
on a bicycle. But, I like your Colnago-Ferrari promtion even more.
Let me know what they say.
