Colnago Owners / Info / Appreciation Thread

Ha Ha, you need to share the wisdom of how it's possible.

Jah's blessed herb ;0)

will use a black campagnolo olympus/centaur gruppo

i'm around most the off road squad for a few weeks

master mtb will get a wheelset rebuild with nos (red decal!) campagnolo box rims, and nos brakeset replacement as guy i sold it to scratched old nos set, was a real result finding the replacements so cheap
rabobank c50 cx needs canti spring overhaul and the beater wheelset rear needs truing
master has hair crack on head tube paint, so will be contacting refurbishers , whilst talking to them about some other potential projects, will inquire about the possibility of replacing/replicating the Joeri Adams team name on the nds rear, as they used to spray for rabobank team
as for the super cx, long haul refurb

dropped stem

drop the saddle as well, this is gonna hurt. ;-)

i've been riding it mate and it feels ok, only for just over a couple of hours at any one time though

beater tires,and saddle

Oh my. I'm lost for words.

guy I sold it to put a few scratches on it,had nos gruppo and a pristine refurb when i passed it on crankset was protected by chainstay tape when I sold it, tires just a little too fat tbh, outer knobbles graze rd cable, should wear off pretty quick though, tires will go soon

blb has this currently in a tad worse condition

been on the market a while though, but if i could, fuck yes

added some more DA 7400 parts so my Ariostea looks a bit more like the 1991 team bike:

nice work, no dog in this one?

I have a black colnago master carbon saddle for sale would like to see £40 for it. Pics on request

Looking good Wim

Loved that colour scheme. Looks beautiful!

Nice indeed. Looking good.
I've just picked up a nice cheap Holdsworth today with a full dura 7402 group, mint set of open 4cd/dura wheels too. Had plans to build it up on an elegant frame I have but feel it deserves something better like yours.

i got that group for the maipei carbitubo mono
(fuck saying that pissed)

Yep that definately defines better

@JusCos depends on how that Elegant looks, no?

Love that build !

Yep you've got me there. That is a lot lot lot nicer than mine. Mine's been rattle can painted white and frankly looks shite. That one doesn't fall anywhere near that category

So Mexico vs super NDS chain stay proof in the pudding time.
