Hi,
Can anyone tell me whether the fork on the Colnago Ace have an alloy steerer? or is it full carbon?

Yeah thats what confuses me, because when I look at the 2013 spec from wiggle it just says Carbon.

Given that the Colnago Ace is at the lower end (read, less expensive) of all things Colnago, I would say that has an alloy steerer for the fork.
I wouldn't let that bother you though, as its still a good bike, and one I have my eye on as my next bike, as I'm after a sportive style bike.
