According to the Cycling Weekly article, UK pricing converts to between $5700 and 7000 depending on configuration (disc or rim brake) and paint. Hoping this will be somewhat less in the United States since the UK pricing should include VAT.

Lots of alternatives at this party. At one time Colnago was among a small number of builders that defined the epitome of style and performance. Many more options now.

For that kind of money, why would you not go custom?

nickl · #7 02-10-2018, 09:07 AM

Agree that a custom frameset is likely a better alternative for many, at one time the C series Colnagos could be ordered with custom geometries, within limits. This may not be possible given the current configuration.

I’d take the new Time Alp de Huez (sp?) - much better looking..

Have to admit at first glance, not overly enamored...

Per bikeradar the C64 can still be ordered with custom geo.

the articles also say , colnago is de-emphasizing this

You can get them custom, but order early and be prepared to wait.

Photos show that the seat tube has integrated lugs for connection to the top tube, down tube, etc, unlike the C60. Does this limit custom geometry options?

When i was young, C64 meant something else than a bike.
