Colnago Lux Master Pista

Posted on
  • Custom made for Rolf Sørensen i Denmark.
    A one of custom painted and airbrushed Colnago Lux Master Pista.

    I'v been looking for this for about two years. My friend owned this some years ago and when he sold it, i failed to buy. But know it's back and it's a keeper.

    I'm building it as a full Italien stallion. Only Campa, Cinelli and a Flite.
    Better pictures will come, with all the nice details this bike contains.

    Here's a spec list.

    Selle Italia Flite
    Campagnolo Record Aero seatpost
    Cinelli 1A 130mm. stem
    Cinelli Criterium dropbar
    Campagnolo Record headset (i'm changing that one to a Campa Record pista)
    Campagnolo Pista BB
    Campagnolo Pista crank 165mm. with campa chainbolts, chainring, dustcab and crankbolt.
    Miche track chain
    Mavic Track tubulars 36h. polished. Think it's a MA1 but it was made for trackracing only. They are NOS and direktly from the danish track.
    Don't know witch tubbis i'm going for here. But i'm thinking all black. Skinwalls are a bit to much for this build.
    Campagnolo high flange Record Hubs.
    Campagnolo 14t cog
    Campagnolo lockring

    I'm not gonna use this bike for anything else than a sunny ride once and a while.
    Here a some pictures.

    Some of the parts

    Starting on the wheels this weekend.

    Hope you like it.

  • Very nice

  • what no sheriff stars? ;)

  • Ha, no. Not for this one. This is gonna be true track. Not posh porn bike.
    I'm gonna get it signed by the orginal rider too :)

  • from what i know, sheriff starts were/are very smooth, and a good choice for track specifically for that reason. i think you got it the other way around, so cough it up! =))

  • nice project btw =))

  • Haven't Seen any "real" trackwheels with Sheriff's and I allready build one custom made Colnago pista with those hubs.
    I find the high flange Record on the Mavic track tubular rim more true to the project.

  • Either way looking good!

  • v nice, ignore jealous comments

  • what sort of year is the frame, do you know?

  • 2002 would be my guess. Sorensen rode for Landbouwkrediet in his final season and that was their team paint colour.

  • I think this is a bit before that. The late 90's for sure. I'm going write him about it. So i'll tell you the answer when I get it.
    He was one of the last guys switching from steel to carbon. Even though his mate's where racing carbon, he wanted steel. So he got this bike specialy made for him in team colors. Its chrome underneath.

  • oh ok got it, then i guess high flange Records on Mavic tubulars make perfect sense

  • Beautiful mate.
    Going to ride awesomely

  • I sure hope so :)

  • Great frame, nice components too!
