Over the past year I've learned to hate the Capo colors, so I stripped the paint with Aircraft stripper and brushed it down with a scouring pad. It's looks great in person, but it was a LOT of work.

2010 Capo

Submitted by James Treichler on 07/04/2009.

I have an order for a black Capo going in on Monday, but I've always loved the look of brushed aluminum. Any thoughts on when the 2010s might be available? I have to special order my size anyways; it might be worth it to wait for the new finish.

I have an old Gary Fisher that I recently scratched off half the finish on the top tube...I want to strip the whole finish, but I've been lazy to take on such a big project. We'll see. Your Capo looks great!!!

Ironically, the 2010 Capo looks almost just like this. It's just polished and cleat-coated aluminum.

Haven't seen any pics of a new raw finish capo. Originally it was available in either black or clearcoated aluminum (but with decals under the clearcoat).

It's a cool frame, I just don't like the paint schemes Cannondale uses.
