Hi, please help me guys. Is it worth to buy? How much is it worth? What about the fork crown without the ace of clubs? Thanks in advance!

The fork definitely looks non-original.
I’d be wary.

The decals seem strange, a little too bold. Also wondering if the downtube should have been crimped, maybe it was damaged together with the fork, and was replaced before respray.

This is a Colnago master with a chorus groupset all from the 90’s I would say. The fork it not original as it should be stamped On the shoulders but its a good match and in very decent shape. Value is not so high because the fork is missing so around 500GBP. I am the admin for the Colnago owners group on Facebook is I have seen a few of these. Paint isnt original

That’s a very useful website. I was given a somewhat rusty and knackered Colnago which I told was a Superissimo but I had no way of confirming it. I had it restored and it’s quite nice now but I was never sure of what it was but the website confirms it is indeed a Superissimo.

Superissimo is a very decent frame, don't see so many nowadays

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

> Quote text by starting lines with >

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
