Description
The Colnago Master model line is undoubtedly an evergreen of cycling history. First released in 1983, five different versions of the Colnago Master were manufactured until 1998 (the Master 1983, Master Più 1988, Master Olympic 1991, Master Light 1994 and Master X-Light 1998).
Thanks to this superb frame, the Italian brand achieved the peak of steel frame design, but on the other hand, the Master also represents the end of the steel era in the bicycle industry.
Released in 1991, the Master Olympic shares with its predecessors the famous crimped tubing, designed by Gilberto Colombo to make the frame stiffer and more reactive. Yet it is slightly oversized to add more stiffness. The Olympic also distinguished itself for very eye-catching paint schemes, especially the famous Decor pattern.
This model is a Colnago Master Olympic in a well preserved, original Decor paint scheme, constructed using Columbus Profilo S4 tubes. The components are, of course, some of the best parts possible: A complete Campagnolo Chorus groupset.
Performance and quality. A bicycle for high-demanding riders.
