Welcome to this listing for this beautiful Colnago Super. This is the very best vintage bike frame you can buy from the most coveted bike manufacturer. I purchased the bike from the estate of the original owner as I fell in love with the colour scheme, however, sadly this bike is too big for me and has been in storage for quite a while. The son of the owner told me it was purchased in 1982 and it is one of a couple of my private collection of Italian vintage bikes which I am putting up for sale.Taken from steel-vintage.com:
Few bicycles have influenced the sports cycling scene as much as the Colnago Super. At a time when racing bicycles were averagely heavy with long wheelbases and flat angles, Ernesto Colnago released a frameset which would become a legend of cycling history and one of the top models of his 1970s and 1980s catalogues – the Super.
Made of Columbus SL steel tubes, with a shorter, stiffer and lighter frame, the Colnago Super was designed for high-performance. Since the launch, uncountable racing bicycles have been built with a geometry inspired by the Super.
The frame size is 60cm ctt. The top tube is just over 58cms ctc. There are no dents or bends and the frame is straight and true.The colour scheme is the famous deep Saronni red which has come up slightly lighter in the pictures. I would rate the paintwork as 7/10 as there are a couple of paint chips and one very small area has been touched up around the bottom bracket. This bike is a long long way off needing a repaint an it is great vintage condition. It absolutely gleams in the sun and people were always stopping me and commenting on the few times I took it out.The bike comes with 3ttt pantographed stem and 3ttt bars. It has Campagnolo Nuovo Record shifters, front and rear mech and very rare record high flange hubs with tubs. The chainset is Campagnolo too with a Modolo brakeset and OMAS superlite headset. The seat post is a slightly more modern aero design but is stamped Made in Italy. It matches well with the black stem and brakes to over all make a great looking vintage bike. I have had to replace the hoods with some Dia-compe replacements as the originals had perished. This bike is in vintage condition and with any 30+ year old bike I wouldn’t recommend riding as hard as a modern bike and I would recommend a full service by a qualified mechanic. The brakes will need adjusted slightly and I have reflected this in the asking price and you may even want to replace these. I now work between Oxford and Brussels, so can be viewed or collected in either location or I am happy to post across Europe. However, I am not a business so it can take me up to 5 working days to post mainly because I like to pack the frame thoroughly so there is no damage in transit. Please send me message first to get an up to date postage date if this is important to you. Any questions, please ask before purchasing.
