Colnago Super Classic Road Bike 1974

Few bicycles have influenced the scene as much as the Colnago Super. At a time when racing bicycles were averagely heavyweight and long, Ernesto Colnago released in 1968 a bicycle which would become a legend of the cycling history and the top model of his 1970s' line. Made of Columbus SL steel tubes, with a shorter, stiffer and lighter frame, the Colnago Super was - and actually is - a high-performing bicycle. Since its launch, most racing bicycles have been built with a geometry close to the Super's.
This Colnago Super dates back to approximately 1974, though there are not many traces on the frame. The former owner decided to refurbish the frame. So it got completely new paint in Saronni red.
The frame itself has a very slightly ovalised top tube - a rather special feature which improves the big Colnago frame. It also has braze-on cable guides which had to be ordered as an extra in the first half of the 1970s.
Concerning the components, it is equipped with a complete Campagnolo Nuovo Record groupset which was amongst the best you could get at that time.
This Colnago Super is the perfect choice for Colnago lovers who are looking for one of the 1970s models. Suitable for any classic cycling event.
