This not been posted yet? Probably my favorite bike

Sadly I cannot take credit for being in this thread :-( The fork is indeed columbus max but the main tube set is columbus EGO
Though I would happily say Ego is almost as good if not more special than Max, Each tube is tear drop shaped and about 1/3 as thick as they are tall. Its impossible to photograph but there are some more photos here:

top tube is backwards!
wtf?Read This:

I did a quick search and couldnt really find anything.
I just saw the chrome lower ss pro is now on sale and was going to grab a pair, but thought I would ask here first if anyone has a reason that they are not so good?
Hope to hear some opinions. Cheers,

Thanks guys. convinced me to keep it rat and save my pennys! i have my J.Foster pursuit with the perfect paint job so i guess i dont need two bikes with nice paint!
http://www.flickr.com/photos/grantdavis28/7429858302/sizes/c/in/photostream/Are there any letters stamped in the BB shell?
Yup is has DG 042 J.HILL NZ
so from my understanding it was built by Don Gibbs from New Zealand frame number 42. and was buil for J. Hill. at some point in its life it was branded with mendez. but itl stay that way.
i know its columbus tubing so ill probably get some columbus stickers to complete the look im just not sure what type.

Hey Guys!
so built this mendez track, with is actually a don gibbs built frame. and i love it. however i got offered silly amounts of money for the wheelset and have since sold that shamals,
i have picked up a set of NOS campagnolo bora first generation, which i plan on converting/rebuilding into a set of track wheels
my question is if i go new black shinny wheels the paint it just going to look a bit shite. plus i dont think its good for the frame as is atm. as there is surface rust. so what colour should i paint it. all te components will remain the same just campy black carbon bora wheelset.
Im tempted to go white with a very thin silver flake clear coat. and the chrome the fork and paint the crown the same colour. ideas anyone?
