Colnago Dream and others

Hiya,
Anyone think these late 90s early 2000's Colnago's will ever be worth anything ? I have two that are taking up space and I shall probably never use. They dont seem to fetch great money on eBay.

@Jacksyboy - Welcome to C&V!
We have a saying around here, Pics or it didn't happen. You can post pics in your gallery which is part of your profile. We can grab and post from there. Start with a drive side and then get the details! Looking forward to seeing more Colnago's!

Aluminum Colnago’s have never brought much money on the secondary market.

The Colnago Dream models of the 2000s used a welded Columbus Airplane aluminum tubing; shaped Tecnos-style top and down tube. Later incarnation added the HP carbon rear stays. Colnago also had a Mix model intruduced around 2004 which use aluminum with oversize aluminum chain stays and carbon fiber seat stays; Master shaped top tube and a Dream shaped down tube.

I have steel, TI, and carbon models and have been tempted on a few of the Dream model deals recently for sale. Would really like to find a CX AL Colnago for riding gravel. One recently sold on the bay that was used by Team Rabobank. See some others at the below link

Most aluminium frame from that era are kind of boring/bland but people will pay a premium for anything with "Colnago" on the downtube, so yeah, let's see some pics.

Your request granted
Colnago AL is surely not boring/bland ...

I’d not kick an aluminum framed Colnago to the curb. Especially now that I have a ‘77 Columbus framed racer. Enjoy your build and post pics when you can!
