Very nice indeed Gridno - really like what you've done with this. Interesting concept with the brake levers! Can't say i've seen or considered that as an option before. Are the forks Alu? What is on the black oval sticker located on the TT and forks?

the LOOK has a LOOK HSC forks made of steel/carbon fibre. The dark oval spaces aren't stickers. There are 2 at the frame set one on the Top tube
and one at the right side of the forks. These are without yellow colour, where you can see the carbon fibre structure (see attached pic)

Ah yes, I see now - that's very individual - specific to the Team Once bikes?

Very cool indeed, i'm impressed.

@FINNEY1973 it is not especial for Team ONCE only I think - this frameset had been offered also in blue, white and yellow.
But there was a Special Edition for Team ONCE which has been ridden during Tour de France ... it was pink corresponding to the pink ONCE Jersey
they always used instead of yellow theTeam jerseys during Tour de France

The bike on the photo was build with MAVIC components, which never used by Team ONCE

Re: LOOK a further plastic PRO-Bike replicas for my collecti

Very nice .
Amstrong also used that brake, gear mixed set up for mountain stages .

Re: LOOK a further plastic PRO-Bike replicas for my collecti

... yes I know - but always this kind for brake/gear mixed only used by Shimano equipped Teambikes only.

I never saw such combination on a Campagnolo equipped bike. Normally I am riding since more than 20 years Campagnolo,
but I think with 7400s Shimano STIs it is more difficult to control the front derailleur exactly tahn with a down tube shifter,
so I think they do not do it for lower weight (was the meaning of a lot of People) I think they do that for better control of the
front derailleur especially on mountain stages.

Re: LOOK a further plastic PRO-Bike replicas for my collecti

Pantani used the same set up (alongside EPO) to pretty devastating effect, running Campagnolo.

a friend of mine was in that ONCE team , these photos are from his Facebook
