That's because Colnago is the Pegoretti of the Italian bike world.

Colnago takes bike porn to a whole different level. There are no limitations.

Who wants to look better? Colnago looks bad and that´s where the sexy lives.

The white base on that C60 is so great though!
Black base is fine too, although the yellow-orange stripes seem a bit "heavy" maybe like someone already wrote (and the EPS "Decor eyeballs" are strange too, on Mapei, worse than the stripes).

That white C59 is beautiful even if the font is pretty ugly. I had not realized the Mapei design had so many variations.

Here is a nice collection, but not enough photos: https://www.bikeexchange.com.au/news...lnago-superfan

My gut instinct would like to put more clear coat over that paint.
Or not ride the bike.

It is indeed beautiful

I think it was worth to pass on that C59 and wait ( involuntarily ) for this.

It would be however a mismatch because the build kit I had for this is a Super Record from 2014, and a 3T Rotundo LTD

So this Frame from 2019 will be built on parts from 2014, and passing on all the new bells and whistles like disk brakes or electronic shifting, but it will be nicer looking in my opinion

Got it with Cicli Mattio

https://it.ciclimattio.com

This is a Colnago dealer in the Torino Area,
Write to Alessandro.

He gave me a really good price, better that on any other distributor or dealer anywhere.

Delivery time one month.

The fact everybody wants a Colnago instead of De Rosa is a sign the world is wrong and justice does not prevail.
