Colnago Crystal Mapei Steel Road Bike 1990s

When many bicycle producers dropped steel out of their programs in the late 1990s in favour of aluminium and carbon fiber, Ernesto Colnago had a different opinion. He knew that steel with its specific characteristics had its rightful place in his model line. Some very advanced lugged steel frames were built in his factory, like the Master X-Light, the Tecnos or the Colnago Crystal.
Made from specifically shaped Columbus Brain tubes which were connected by classic three-point Master lugs, the Crystal was meant to be the perfect frame for ambitious enthusiasts who rode their bikes not just in races but who also trained often and under harsh conditions.

Our Colnago Crystal is one of those fine steel bikes. The frame has been covered with the colours of one of the most popular 1990s teams and equipped with one of Campagnolo's finest groupsets.
The team Mapei paint scheme and the Campagnolo Chorus parts lift this elaborated steel frame to the level of a real dream machine.
Great for all kinds of riding - leasure jaunts or even ambitious race training!
