Sportives, gran fondos, and riders coming off a race bike who want more stack without going full gravel.
Taller stack, longer stays, and calmer steering than the Ultimate. It still pedals like a Canyon road bike, but it takes the edge off chipseal and all-day hours.
Sportive riders who found Teammachine too low.
BMC endurance road: taller stack, more compliance, all-day. Still Swiss-precise steering compared with some endurance bikes.
Riders who want a Colnago that isn't a WorldTour V4Rs. More comfort and presence than the V bikes.
Colnago's lugged-carbon flagship. More of a beautiful all-rounder than a pure V-series race whip, with a size run in Colnago's s-suffix chart.
