I keep seeing this Colnago in the bike shed at work and really want to buy it off the guy, but have no idea how much it may be worth.

Can any of you give me a guide to the current going rate for such a bike? It is not mint, there are plenty of scratches on it.

I sold a Colnago frame in better condition than that for £315 a few months ago. I'd offer him £400 and see what he says.

Bikes too small, hence the saddle being way back - use that as a bargaining tool when trying to buy it off him.

A guy i met the other day bought something similar but in pristine condition with straight blade forks for £550 (i think) complete. It was Shimano (9) Ultegra equipped. Lovely looking bike.

I think the stem is the cro-mo version. Looks like me old one.

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

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

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