The longer it's out there, the greater the chances of other riders 'craning' their necks to have an admiring look which might lead to crashes. Have you noticed a trail of destruction behind you when you're out, riding this beautiful bike?
Gonna be a lot of stiff necks down that way.

Which one is the most comfortable to ride?

I will get to riding it again sometime
I'm not sure what it is yet. That orange/yellow/red colouring is decals rather than paint. I've done an extensive google image search and can't another with decals like that.GaryF wrote:I can see why you're excited 'Lots of steel bikes', it looks to be in good condition and will clean up very nicely. The 'sunburst' paint scheme should attract a lot of attention.
What model do you think it is? My rough guess would be an 84/5 Super.
Hi NASHIE, I'd work on cornering the market in Colnago 58-60cm frames but my wife has put a STOP to that - bless her. I think there may be one or two still around.NASHIE wrote:Thats a great garage of Colnago's you have GaryF. Would love another Colnago back in my garage, but looks like you own all the 58-60cm frames
The only number I can find is A5 stamped on the drive side dropout. Can't find any meaning behind this via google.koen wrote:Are there numbers somewhere that indicate anything? I'd be interested to know about mine.
How do you know that Nikolai?Nikolai wrote:It's not an original Colnago paint job, the bike was repainted.
The first clue is the paint job itself - Colnago would never paint a bike like that (Peougeot, maybe, but not Colnago). I'm not saying it's bad, I'm saying it's not Colnago's style.Lots of steel bikes wrote:How do you know that Nikolai?Nikolai wrote:It's not an original Colnago paint job, the bike was repainted.
go ahead and repaint the frame with fresh stickers. I think there are plenty of them around. If this is indeed a Super from the 1980s, you got yourself a decent steel ride You may be right about the repaint Nikolai but I love that deep red wine colour. Those panel decals cover far to much of the frame but I think it would be very difficult to remove them.Nikolai wrote: The first clue is the paint job itself - Colnago would never paint a bike like that (Peougeot, maybe, but not Colnago).

The second clue (a proof actually) are the close ups you posted - you can see the frame was repainted.
What it means is that you can boldly
