Description
The Colnago Super Oro perfectly embodies Ernesto Colnago's vision: be creative and stay in public focus.
In 1979, he reportedly manufactured roughly 100 exemplars of a gold-plated version of his masterpieces, the Super and the Mexico. Then he donated the frame number one - a Mexico Oro - to nobody less than Pope John Paul II. Since then, these bicycles have become an icon within the history of cycling and has appealed to avid collectors worldwide.
This particular Colnago Oro has received a fresh gold plating and is fitted with original Campagnolo Record parts including the original pantographs. A visual highlight is certainly the rare Ambrosio 6-Arm crankset.
The frame includes a special cable routing for the shifting cables, which are running inside of the down tube and right through the bottom bracket.
A monument of Colnago's glorious history. The perfect bicycle to complete a serious collection.
