via discourse online, it has been suggested it could be a special build for the mapei gb team...
"indeed...that is an interesting find...i would LOVE to learn the history, since we cant seem to find any history related to production offerings...maybe a one-off special for a Mapei-GB rider?"
it's brand integrity has been agreed upon in other discussions
so no further info on wtf kinda model it is,
has all carbon tube, but only dt instead of two on the carbitubo
the dual was said to have been made with one*or *two dt's...
"Manufactured by Alan, stamped "Colnago" name on bottom of headtube. Aluminum tubing screwed and glued to lugs. Sizing stamped in bottom bracket, no serial number on rear dropouts. Top tube ovalized for shouldering bike on transitions. Dual downtube version also manufactured by Alan for Colnago, with different lug design from the single downtube version." (source)
next I have to contact the factory, and see if they can "help a brother out"
just need a hs to start build, group is da 7401, so torn betwixt a da hs, or chris k 2 nut at mo
