(Update: I should have been clear... please place votes in the poll section to the left here... thanks.)
Here are some potential sideviews of the new Speciale Sprint frameset- this is a steel frameset built around the Coltello frame, so it is a full-on race geometry built from sweet riding steel. This is an answer to all those who have been wanting a steel race frameset... it's a beauty. I'll have pictures of my sample frameset in the next day or two.
I need you guys to let me know which version of the decals you prefer... by Friday. I have to pull the trigger on my decision ASAP, so I need your help right away.
As always... thank you for participating and helping to shape the brand.

"C" or "F" I can't tell the difference
"D" tickles me in fun places. But i'm colorblind.
G for me, Big Man
They all look good, but I think I'd go with "G."
The diff between C & F are the Masi logo colors on the front fork.
I voted for the B frame because it has the most retro look. But there was one option I didn't see - something similar to B, but with white letters. I think they'd pop out of that dark background.
For a really beautiful classic looking steel bike, I'd lose the sloping top tube...
EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
D - I'm not colorblind, the bike is orange for goodness sake, the gray is a nice subtle contrast, IMHO
or
C - still subtle
For whatever it's worth, at this point, there's not much of a consensus, Tim.
Hi Tim
I like them all but I feel they are way too close to the Ritchey Breakaway cross frame:
http://ritcheylogic.com/web/Ritchey~Logic/Ritchey~Site/Templates/eproducts_single.aspx?id=23160&live=true
i know its a classic look and Ritchey took inspiration from somewhere too... but... hmmm...
I like B. It looks classic and fast.
All are great options - bar tape, saddle and components add up to the whole package working together.
B with a tan saddle, tan cork or Brooks leather bar tape and with caged peddles would be awesome!
I would like to know more about the fork - will there be a canti version used on another bike?
Cool, I am glad to see this. Will it be drilled for brakes (at least a front one) or is it strictly for the track?
Oops, I voted for the wrong one. I meant to pick D, but I picked C by accident. Oh well, that is still my second choice.
I'm liking choice "D". Clean and simple. Think of all the obnoxious jersey's that could clash. I like the gray.
B..looks classic...but maybe you aren't going for that with the branding of it? Maybe you want new and fresh? But, if you want classic and great, I love B!
Dear Masiguy
B
Love,
BunE
D is the best!
D and G are both good choices to me.
Of course, I voted for D.
The R/W bands on a Windsor orange, well...black and grey "pop" well.
