Wow thanks for doing this video. I am a Colnago Addict and have a Master X-Light and and C59 Team issue, both of which are ridden regularly (and are forever bikes). This also bought back some fond memories as I had a Saronni bike with Superbe Pro back in the 90's and wish I never sold it. Keep up the great work.

@ronasaurus74 Год назад

I own a Colnago Pista with four crimps in the top and down tubes, with none on the seat tube or stays. As far as I have been able to determine, there was never a model in the range like that, and I have only ever found one more like that on the internet, which, according to its owner was reputedly built for Jan Raas for his last track season. I suspect that mine, similarly, was built for a particular rider, to particular specifications, but, so far , have been unable to determine for just who? I did e-mail Colnago at the time I got it, but got no reply. Since then I found out that Laura at Colnago handles historical queries, so I really must get around to asking her.......there is a stamp on the right dropout- " H6R"- "H6"- I believe indicates August '86- but what, or who the "R" refers to, I do not know.

What an exotic collection. Never rode a Colnago but I did have a Legnano in the late 50's early 60's in the very same lime green colour.

@BikeItUK Год назад

I hope it brought back some fond moments thanks for watching and the support

@kwokchong3781 Год назад

Andy - thank you for another great video ! I have 2 Masters in the stable - Olympic and PIU - surprised Graham did not mention the Colnago Fork Evolution. For me the Precisa fork and Gilco tubing was the pinnacle of a classic steel frame.

@BikeItUK Год назад

Good call! Thanks for watching glad you enjoyed it, sounds like you have some very nice bikes there. Thanks for sharing and your support, it much appreciated

@ralphc1405 Год назад

the early Master frames still had the curved fork. The mid-80s Master frames in red retinatto (and other red variations) are my favorite before they started with all that rainbow gibberish color schemes of Mapei, Buckler and Lampre. Oh well...

@PInk77W1 8 месяцев назад

When I was 12 I just got into cycling. Basically no one in my town road racing bikes. It was a small farming town. So one day I go to the drug store to buy some candy and there’s a COLNAGO outside. I was in total shock. I just stared at it for 5-10minutes. I had no clue what it was. Now I’m 62. Have cycled across the USA 4 times and Ridden across China and India and Australia. I’ve owned many bikes in the last 50yrs. I’ve never owned an Italian bike. Right now I have 6 Ti bikes 5 of which are Campy and one Shimano. I still love Colnago

@Sprocketboy1956 Год назад

Another great video, Andy! I have a 1982 Super in Saronni Red (Super Record but not pantographed, alas) and my most recent acquisition is a 1996 C40 (same paint scheme as the Master Olympic at 17:29). Both are wonderful to ride, albeit very different. All great bikes in this collection but I think the one I would go for is the Master so as to compare it to my contemporary C40.

@BikeItUK Год назад

Brilliant, glad to hear the Colnago bug has bitten you. Sounds like you've got some nice bikes there. Thanks for watching and your vote it is much appreciated

@verdeboyo Год назад

I so enjoyed that👍🏻 I still have my Daccordi SLX from the 80s and it is immaculate. I much prefer the ride of my full carbon Bianchi over the old steel 'works of art', and Graham Weigh is a legend, I grew up watching him race as a pro and few years ago bought my Dolan track bike from the very nice man he is. This is what RU-vid should be about, lovely material like this

@BikeItUK Год назад

Mate…much appreciated thanks for your kind words of support glad you liked it 👍

@rymal4793 Год назад

I just bought a 1980 Colnago Super with Roger de Vlaeminck panto. I'm really privileged to own a piece of history. Thanks for all your great videos, look forward to what's next. Maybe a Legnano as that's my next project.

@jubeeju Год назад

That is Amazing. Brilliant video. Thanks for sharing. Just a small note : at @10:00 Lee mentioned that Saronni won the "worlds" in 2002 - in fact, he won it in 1982 (at Goodwood, and I was there by the finish line to see him rocket up the hill so fast that Lemond & Kelly could not follow him ;o)

@georgeszaslavsky 11 месяцев назад

Very interesting video, thanks for sharing. Great collection . At one moment I was dreaming of a Colnago Master X Light and a Tecnos but the price of the frames for sale alone where far out of my reach. I ended buying some other high end steel and alumnium frames as projects with a Vetta Team in Dedacciai 18 MCDV6HT, a Fausto Coppi Legano in Columbus Genius, A Grandis Overmax, a Daccordi Fly aluminium custom, a Veneto Art Decort Altec 2 Frame, a Pinarello Stelvio in Kens (Dedacciai 18 MCDV6HT Tubing) and a CT Wallis in Reynolds 731 OS. I have also a fair share of my mountain bikes including a 1995Scapin in Dedacciai 18MCDV6HT, a 1997 Kona Kilaeua in Reynolds 631, a 1992 Merida Albon and added three other MTB projects with a 1998 Jamis Dragon in Reynolds 853, a 1999 Trek 6700 SLR and 2004 Trek 6500SLR. Graham is also a well known frame builder. A friend of mine has a Graham Weigh Reynolds 853 road frame equipped with dura ace, a terrific bike. You should do a video on the Colnago Ovaltitan and Bititan titanium bikes , they are well worth it.

@andredegraaf1643 Год назад

Nice collection! Now I have a question about the Master versions. I own a 1994 MasterLite which has internal rear brake cable routing and the seat stays are conventional. My other bike is a 2002 Master which has now external rear brake cable and a "fastback" seat stay arraignment. Any insights to the MasterLite range?
