When the mountain bike wave swept over from the US to Europe in the 1980s, Colnago was - after Cinelli - one of the first companies to adopt to the situation.
Akin to their approach on road bikes, their cross country bikes were designed to be up in the top class.
This Colnago De Luxe is made of Colnago proprietary tubing, possibly made by Tange. The distinctive model name referres to the equipment fitted to it - Shimano Deore LX parts with 7-speed STI shifters.
Its components are top notch Shimano Deore XT parts which ensure a nice functionality to this day. The partypice is certainly the paintjob which won't let one head unturned.
For Colnago lovers, for vintage-MTB aficionados and for those who like something a bit more special.
