Colnago Super Restoration - It’s FINALLY Complete 

Beautiful, a craftsman again memories of what I wanted back in the day.

Congratulations!

Beautiful. Have same C Record jockey wheels on Ciocc Campag Record build...ball bearing instead of bushing. You are as close to perfection on your Colnago as one would hope to achieve.

Very nice! My only demerit would be the black sidewall tires - this bike would look SO much better with tires with tan/brown sidewalls. The good part's they're easily changed!!! Good work!

Awesome bike Congratulations

Wow, what a feat. What I really want to thank you. You have inspired me to look for an old Holdsworth of the same time frame, same parts. Greetings from England!

Great to see the vintage bikes so lovingly detailed and restored. In the olden days, the toe straps were twisted when laced through the back of the pedals to keep the buckles in place. Two twirls and that’d lock the strap so the buckle never slides around

What a beauty

Complimenti vivissimi per questo lavoro di restauro a una bicicletta che meritava di essere rimessa in strada. Ottimo lavoro che denota una grande passione. Saluti dall' Italia da un appassionato delle biciclette in acciaio.

Hi buddy. Your transformation of "scrap" into a perfect vintage racing bike is perfect. Congratulations.

Well done Sir

Just right mate well done

Actually, best retro rebuild I've seen. And watched a lot...

Got similar model, mine a 1973, been riding this bike until now but a few upgrades been done to make it competitive on the road.🚵🏼‍♂️👍

Bravo 👏🏼 Congrats on award 🥇

Super job 🎉🎉🎉

really nice work there, not easy at all~

Wow fantastic restoration. Couldn't see the weight on the scales.

Beautiful work on the restoration. Congratulations on the win. Great video All the best. STEEL IS REAL.

It’s been a treat following you outstanding project. Yours, is a well deserved win. Congratulations from an amateur restorer🚴🏽

A fabulous conclusion to this Odyssey, with a stunning result you must be proud of. I've learned a lot from your videos and have applied that knowledge to my build, thanks for sharing. Now... on to the next one!

Wow Brett!

eu amo essa marca de bike

Really nice job mate, beautiful attention to detail

Perfecto !

Well done Brett. Another amazing build. I can sleep peacefully tonight.

Absolutely stunning build. Your attention to detail is amazing.The transformation from start to finish shows that with hard work and patience you can achieve a fantastic result.

Fantastic job! An inspiration to finish my 1981 Colnago Super restoration as soon as possible!

An amazing effort…

Yet another great video I thoroughly enjoyed watching. Fantastic restoration and a well deserved first place.

Well done Brett, especially on the winning restoration at Eroica SA! One of my nicest Colnago bikes to ride is my 87/88 Super!

Wow. Just wow…

Well done 👍 Nice to see all period correct 💕

Congrats! One of your cleanest builds on RU-vid so far. Campagnolo on Colnago= very nice. Excellent filming and editing too! Thanks

Fantastic restore, very inspiring. Thank you for your in depth videos , tips and overall content . Well deserved win at the end .

I've been watching (and learning) from the beginning. Great transformation and thoroughness in your restoration. If you were in Toronto, I would have a jockey wheel or two for you. Congrats on the win!

Ebay has SHIMANO black pulleys that go perfectly on a SR derailleur! I have them installed on mine.

Well done Brett. I recognise some of the tools :). I have a improved handle bar holder for you

That's a much nicer super than mine from the early 90s, I believe mine is a c93?, but I also understand it wasn't actually made in the colnago factory. Made from CrMo4 tubing it lacks all the fancy cutouts and details of the earlier models and it seems to be an export model. Only found one photo online which even resembles it....it rides really nice tho and is unbelievably stable on a descent...congrats on the award👍

Worth wait for sure, well done... Belíssima my friend and great video

What a beauty. I basically binged your whole channel, really great stuff. That DX3000 is great too. 👍

Trabalho primoroso! Parabéns

Belle réussite ! Merci pour cette vidéo inspirante pour moi qui suis en train de remonter un Mexico. Seul point qui m'interroge, c'est le sens d'enroulement de la guidoline. Dans les seventies, on enroulait de haut en bas du cintre? Il me semble qu'aujourd'hui on enroule de bas en haut. Effectivement en partant du haut on évite la coupe en biais et le chatterton.

Been eagerly awaiting this one :-)

Awesome work and great bike! First time here and subscribed 👍

Me parece que es una Colnago Mexico, pero lo digo porque tengo una igual y está certicada por fábrica. La mía es la número 25, están numeradas en la horquilla y en el cuadro.

Lovely, Brett. And congratulations. PS I notice a section of tubing with a familiar colour scheme in the top right of the picture during your opening remarks, as well as a matching fork on the workbench …

Show de bola.

Very nice work Brett, congratulations & so well deserved. I've been trying to worm a Super frameset out of a huge local Colnago hoarder that I know for the year passed, & he becomes extremely anxious & agitated every time I mention it. He only has about 50 or 60 Colnagos. Is there any technique you think might work? BTW, I have an immaculate & unblemished original condition Flema, (Fritz Fleck, Mannheim, Germany) 1977. He was a mad lad, 1st to produce Titanium, 1969/70 I think, almost killed his test pilot, went back to steel, & he would only build for select National Teams riders, basically they had to win gold first, & only then would they get the bike, if he was in a good mood. If you're unfamiliar, do check him out. Mine is mounted with SR cranks & the drilled chainrings, Sugino Aero Mighty pedals & tit clips. Simplex derailleur, & I recently found it a set of NOS Simplex friction shifters. I also treated it to a full set of NOS Modolo brakes, incuding pads, & a Berthoud tit saddle. I'm in Aust, & I recall you saying that the currency exchange rate was an issue. Well same here. Love your vids.

I did comment when the video came out - must have got lost somehow? anyway, well done on what is a fantastic restoration and deserved 1st place at the concourse d'elegance - 100% deserved :-) never tried the talcum powder method for fitting hoods before. used washing up liquid which was fine unless going straight out in the rain!! you've inspired me to finally get my 1980s Major Nichols repainted and built up. It's been over 2 years waiting!

Gorgeous, well done. What’s next? Looking forward to the next bike.

Essa é a mais linda de todas colnago é a super o ano de meu nascimento.

In one word: Perfect! Congrats on a well deserved 1st place. When is the next Eroica event? Is there a website?

What yellow paint are you using? Are the seat stays supposed to have Colnago written in white on them? Watching you work is a pleasure.

Wow... seriously impressive. I would love to have someone restore my 1988 Team PDM Concorde, but funds escape me. Awesome job!

como eu faria para comprar uma colnago desa e o meu sonho ter uma

Hello, congrats for this gorgeous restoration. I also have a Colnago Super 1979 and I'm looking for rebuild it. I waanted to know if its possible for you to give me the The references and where I can find the derailleur, brakes, stickers and handlebar accessories. I'm new to this so I don't know much about it and the search is going nowhere. Thank you very much! With all due respect, Martin

You did a really great job with that bike. What year is that gios Torino ya got there? I’ve got a bunch of rare birds here with me

i love you

Beautiful BUT why oh why does every restoration have brake cables way too long and not use Alfredo Binda Extra toe straps ? If your gonna have a vintage pro bike know how too set it up like one , its the details that matter. Its not rocket science..............

...problems with your decalc. Not quality. They look like stickers !

Nice Video!! Colnago's cost a small fortune back in the 70's when I was a teenager. I've wondered what was the difference between the Colnago & Cinelli, & why it seemed that Colnago was more expensive? Both bikes shared similar Campag parts. Can anyone explain?
