By chance, a mail-order shop in my area gets in a lot of “special” buys from Colnago and other Italian manufacturers like Campagnolo. You never know what they have and you just have to keep checking the website. This bike was a never registered bike used for bike shows and was now being sold at a very deep discount with a new warranty.

I couldn’t pass it up and I love it. It meets all my requirements and the handling is superb, the setup from the dealer was perfect, price was right, and it even has bar tape!

Nice! with the bar tape included it was a no brainer!
