Hehe, we build almost the same bike in the same time ;) how do you know the serial number #186 ?

breso says:

It has an anniversary sticker on the seat tube that says 186, they were released in 1996 for the 100th Paris-Roubaix edition.
I still don't know how many were made for that specific run.

My dad rides a C40 roughly set up like yours. Must say i do like them but it's the paint job on this one that is just amazing!!

breso

breso says:

Nice! No wonder why you have such taste on bikes ;)
This paintjob is actually the first or one of the first appeared on C40s, the tricky bit is to find it with matching seatpost!

Very nice frame with excellent built. But is it tough enough for a almost 20-year-old carbon frame?
