My 2009 Commi Super 4.2 in black has morphed into a 2010 Super 4 Pro.  I had the inevitable Commonfail but the nice people at Madison commencalwarranty@madison.co.uk sent me a new frame.  When I say it is Orange I mean ORANGE Dale Winton Orange.  Going to give a good hammering tommorow

That's stunning!

... tell me where did you get that chainstay protector from and what size is it? I've tried lizard skins ones and one size is too big and the next size is too small.

Well its had a couple of rides.  The geometry of the frame is slightly different think I am going to have to try a layback post or longer stem.  However it still has the Commencal    factor

This is it at the bottom of the Healey Nab Black run at Rivington my mate reckons I actually got both wheels off the deck but that was accidental

It is a Lizard skin or it certainly looks identical to a lizardskin.  I think One planet just get them printed up.  Buy the slightly smaller size soak it in warm water then fit it stretching it, it needs 3 hands to fit and as it dries it shapes it self to the chainstay.
