I was going to keep this one for myself, but I am going with a longer top
tube so this one is up for sale.
This beautiful frame, circa 1988, measures 55cm from the center of the
bottom bracket to the top of the top tube, or 53.5cm from the center of the
bottom bracket to the center of the top tube, with a 54cm top tube. The
frame has a striking hot pink to mint green fade paint scheme with a fish
net effect at the paint transitions. This frame was made in Italy of
Columbus SLX Spiral Conic steel tubing designed especially for Colnago. The
down tube is custom tapered for this Colnago Conic model. It is wider at the
bottom for stiffness when sprinting or climbing, much like the philosophy
behind the Serotta Colorado Concept tubing.
The frame has the Colnago ace of clubs pantographed into the top of the seat
stays and bottom bracket shell, bottom chromed head tube lug, and brake
bridge stay. The Colnago ace of clubs is cut out of the bottom of the bottom
bracket shell, and the word COLNAGO is engraved into the bottom of the
shell.
The chromed 1" threaded fork has the Colnago ace of clubs pantographed in
the top of the fork crown and the word "COLNAGO" pantographed in the side of
the fork crown. The head tube lugs, drive side chainstay, and rear dropouts
are chromed also.
The rear spacing is 130mm, head tube length is 124mm, and the fork steerer
is 1" threaded and 169mm tall. This frame has adjustable rear horizontal
Campagnolo Campy dropouts (screws not included), braze-on front derailleur
tab and down tube shifter bosses, derailleur cable guides under the bottom
bracket shell, two sets of water bottle bosses, pump peg, and the rear brake
cable is routed inside the top tube.
There are no dings or dents.this bike is in wonderful condition. A
nine-speed Shimano Ultegra wheel fits perfectly in the rear dropouts. There
may be a few very tiny marks from being in storage for 15 years or so but
you would have to look for them to find them. The chrome on the right chain
stay, head tube lugs, and fork is shiny and bright. The frame has been
completely treated inside the tubes with Boeshield T-9 rust prevention
spray. This frame will turn heads wherever you go.it is stunningly
beautiful! It also will provide you with a wonderful ride that you can only
experience on a Colnago.
Lots of free pictures for the asking. $525 professionally packed, shipped,
and insured to the lower 48 United States.
