Colnago are well known for their revolutionary carbon fibre road bike, the C40 was first released in the mid 1990's. Fast Forward to the all new C68 it is a representative of what Colnago stands for Carbon, Cambiago and Class. Founded in 1954 the C68 now represents "Made In Italy"
What elevates Colnago road frames above others in the market is a passion backed with knowledge and experience that runs though each and every tube. Colango road bike frames are as iconic and rich in palmares. Each and every Colango bike frame is the result of Ernesto's never-ending quest for innovation.
The Colnago C68 is the pinnacle of the evolution of Colnago history, it's the lug construction at its extreme development, it's where 68 years of frame design meet the future. C68 is simply the new milestone.The all new splitted headtube is now stronger, lighter and more customisable than ever. Parts are reduced from 8 (C64) down to 6, this way they are saving weight (less bonding area) and machining/gluing time. The C68 fork has been completely redesigned, it is more stiff and resistant and weighs 40 grams less & with an external rib-shape to give the rider more comfort but also to increase the ride-quality.

This bike will be shipped partially built in a bike box. Due to the personal nature of a bike fit we ship these bikes with an uncut steerer tube and uncut brake hoses. We would recommend the build be undertaken by a competent bicycle mechanic.
