Interesting, looks like a straight head tube. 1 1/8”? Or something fatter, like 44mm? Hard to tell from the photos and the Wilier website doesn't say, or at least I couldn't see it.
like the bike and the video. top marks
Agree on looks, mostly: but the grey/red/black (especially with those diagonal stripes on the fork) very much reminds me of my bedroom decor in the 80's when everything was grey/red/black like that! (with a few fluoro highlights mixed in maybe.)
Love the design, but a plain (or block coloured fork) would appeal to me more. Bit Pricey I think...
Agreed. If that's steel then it looks nickel plated. It has the same brown tint that nickel and Ti has.
Gorgeous colour.
